By the way, if you are wondering why the parser needs to validate
everything, here is an example scenario:
QEMU may be used to host an online micro:bit simulator where the user
can provide a .hex file. In that case QEMU is running on a server and
the .hex file is provided by an untrusted user. That user must not be
able to crash QEMU (and exploit security holes).
