Ouch... we miss a "add{bh } [byteoff]" instruction, or "ldx{bh } [byteoff]"

ldb	[66]
ldxb	[67]
add	x
ldxb	[68]
add	x
ldxb	[69]
add	x
ldxb	[70]
add	x
ldxb	[71]

ldxb	[72]

ldxb	[73]

With current instruction set, pcap optimizer could at least do something like :

ldb	[66]
tax
ldb	[67]
add	x
tax
ldb	[68]
add	x
tax
ldb	[69]
add	x
tax
ldb	[70]
add	x
tax
ldb	[71]
add	x
tax
ldb	[72]
add	x

ldb	[73]
add	x
