Clean up handling of NOPs in the x64 backend.
1. Restricts max nop size to 15 instead of 16. 2. Fixes an edge case where gen_nop() would return a zero sized intruction on multiples of 16. 3. Clarifies the documentation of the gen_nop interface to state that returning zero is allowed when preferred_size is zero.
