These `CompressibleRegion`s transforming the nops used for alignment purposes cannot be removed and the nops should be kept as 2-byte when RVC is enabled, for that we are at a 2-byte boundary and want to do `align(4)` with 4-byte nops would be impossible. So under RVC the nops for alignment purposes must be 2-byte ones. Others `CompressibleRegion`s are useless now.
