I don't know if the operand fontification too decorative but is it logical?
Should a register name have font-lock-variable-face and an address
font-lock-constant-face? I don't use disassembly for debugging or code in
assembler. Perhaps someone who does can comment.

Would gdb-assembler-mode-hook ever be used?
