This commit refines the x86 disassembler’s handling of EVEX instructions with no-broadcast semantics. It corrects an issue where EVEX.W=1 alone was incorrectly interpreted as broadcastable and adjusts the operand check for destination-memory instructions. Additionally, it fixes incorrect broadcastability markings for VMOVDQU{8,16} load instructions, improving disassembly accuracy.
