Add support for 32-bit offset jmp instruction. Currently, we use b
instruction which supports range within ±128MB for such jumps. This
should be large enough for BPF progs.

Add support for unconditional bswap instruction. Since LoongArch is
always little-endian, just treat unconditional bswap the same as big-
endian conversion.
