f295bde84c pass: ensure frame pointer register is saved (#174)
Currently `avo` uses `BP` as a standard general-purpose register. However, `BP` is used for the frame pointer and should be callee-save. Under some circumstances, the Go assembler will do this automatically, but not always. At the moment `avo` can produce code that clobbers the `BP` register. Since Go 1.16 this code will also fail a new `go vet` check.

This PR provides a (currently sub-optimal) fix for the issue. It introduces an `EnsureBasePointerCalleeSaved` pass which will check if the base pointer is written to by a function, and if so will artificially ensure that the function has a non-zero frame size. This will trigger the Go assembler to automatically save and restore the BP register.

In addition, we update the `asmdecl` tool to `asmvet`, which includes the `framepointer` vet check.

e089a6c93c tests/fixedbugs: regression test for issue 100 (#129)
Adds a regression test based on klauspost/compress#186. This necessitated some related changes:

* Mark "RET" as a terminal instruction
* printer refactor to maintain compatibility with asmfmt
* Tweaks to other regression tests to ensure they are run correctly in CI
