Optimize encoding of simple literals
`beam_asm` would encode `{literal,[]}`, `{literal,erlang}`, and
`{literal,42}` in a less efficient way than the equivalent values
`nil`, `{atom,erlang}`, and `{integer,42}`. That would increase the
size of BEAM files and could increase the loaded code size. It would
probably not harm performance, because `literal` was only used this
way in code that generates `badmatch` and `case_clause` exceptions.
