> Intel APX NDD instructions are encoded using EVEX encoding. The goal of this PR is to enable optimized instruction encoding for Intel APX NDD instructions when the non-destructive destination is same as the first source.
> 
> For example:
> 
> `eaddl r18, r18, r25` can be encoded as `addl r18, r25` using APX REX2 encoding
> `eaddl r2, r2, r7` can be encoded as `addl r2, r7` using non-APX legacy encoding
