Handle passing constant integers to functions much more efficiently. Instead

of generating this code:

        mov %EAX, 4
        mov DWORD PTR [%ESP], %EAX
        mov %AX, 123
        movsx %EAX, %AX
        mov DWORD PTR [%ESP + 4], %EAX
        call Y

we now generate:
        mov DWORD PTR [%ESP], 4
        mov DWORD PTR [%ESP + 4], 123
        call Y

Which hurts the eyes less.  :)

Considering that register pressure around call sites is already high (with all
of the callee clobber registers n stuff), this may help a lot.
