Sintendo 7ce7da629e JitArm64_Integer: cmpl - Subtract shifted 12-bit constant
You can encode a shifted 12-bit immediate in a SUB instruction on ARM64.
We exploit this to avoid materializing the immediate.

This approach saves an instruction if it does not need to be
materialized in a register afterwards. Otherwise, we just materialize
it later and the total number of instructions stays the same.

Before:
0x52a00218   mov    w24, #0x100000            ; =1048576
0xcb180379   sub    x25, x27, x24

After:
0xd1440379   sub    x25, x27, #0x100, lsl #12 ; =0x100000
