Beschreibung

There are a number of names in the JIT that are listed as SSE4 but which actually just control whether the instruction or phase supports the 4-byte instruction encoding.

These names should be cleaned up to more accurately represent their purpose.

This includes SetUseSSE4, FIRST_SSE4_INSTRUCTION, LAST_SSE4_INSTRUCTION, and canUseSSE4, but there may be others.
