Heuristic: halfwords #102

Open larsbrinkhoff opened 2 years ago

If the disassembler can't produce symbolic output for a word, try to process halfwords separately.

This is useful for common cases where the assembly is FOO,,BAR. Especially if both halfwords have 0 or 7 as the most significant octal digit. A negative halfword can try both with and without sign extension to 36 bits.
