store non-rex expected bank when first witnessing operand size prefix
the expectation here is that we can set a default `vqp_size` pretty cheaply (Prefixes::new is one store, on x86_64 anyway...). then, when we see an `operand_size` prefix, it's rare enough we can pay a little extra to speculate on *likely* implication, and update some state (`vqp_size` is *probably* going to be 2 because of it) accordingly. the cases where `vqp_size` would go unused and this was wasted effort are relativlely rare. on the other hand, we can't profitably give `rex` this treatment: `rex.w` would set `vqp_size` to `qword`, but rex-prefixed instructions are so often byte-size registers that updating `vqp_size` (conditionally, no less), is only break-even. so, keep a check for `rex.w` at use site, where it's only a choice between `qword` or `whatver-size-a-non-rex.w-prefixed-instruction-would-be-sized`, which has been kept up to date by speculation when detecting `operand_size`.
