An extra bit of analysis for Clemency

I was able to make a [Binary Ninja](https://binary.ninja) architecture plugin on the flight to Vegas, but unfortunately I had to expand everything to 16-bit bytes to be able to handle addressing. This made control flow graph recovery possible, but I had to choose between accurate data references or accurate immediates. I ended up going with accurate immediates and letting my data references fall into the middle of functions (because instruction addresses were all 2x).
The 27-bit words and middle-endianness wasn't a huge issue, but the 9-bit bytes really really sucked. We had IO buffering issues on every exploit we wrote and analyzing PCAPs was a huge pain.
