This commit add "data instructions", a kind instruction that is not an ISA instruction but merely byte value. These allows users to build data (structures) and code in an uniform way and also simplify embedding data into instruction stream (when generating trampolines / PLTs, compiled code headers and so on - all this is common in JIT compilers)
