Richard Henderson b3e2bc500f tcg-i386: Remove "cb" output restriction from qemu_st8 for i386
Once we form a combined qemu_st_i32 opcode, we won't be able to
have separate constraints based on size.  This one is fairly easy
to work around, since eax is available as a scratch register.

When storing variable data, this tends to merely exchange one mov
for another.  E.g.

-:  mov    %esi,%ecx
...
-:  mov    %cl,(%edx)
+:  mov    %esi,%eax
+:  mov    %al,(%edx)

Where we do have a regression is when storing constant data, in which
we may load the constant into edi, when only ecx/ebx ought to be used.

The proper way to recover this regression is to allow constants as
arguments to qemu_st_i32, so that we never load the constant data into
a register at all, must less the wrong register.  TBD.
