ISA datasheets often use binary or hexadecimal constant values.
By doing base conversion, we might introduce bugs. Safer is to
copy/paste the datasheet value.

To add support for bin/hex constants in argument field token,
extend the re_num_ident regexp and use '0' as radix base when
parsing the integer (to interpret it as a code literal).

re_num or re_number, perhaps -- it's not an identifier.

It occurs to me that we don't actually have to interpret this string --
decodetree doesn't do anything with it but pass it along to the generated C
code.  We could in fact accept a re_C_ident as well, to allow symbolic values.
 So long as the symbols are defined before the decode.c.inc file is included.

So perhaps just change ConstField to not expect an integral value, and just
store the string.
