Eliminate the -gen_dest macro flag

Instructions that take a 'd' argument needs a -gen_dest flag in their
macros. For example:

  %macro:put_list PutList -pack -gen_dest
  put_list s s d

-gen_dest was needed when x(0) was stored in a register, since it is
not possible to take the address of a register. Now that x(0) is stored
in memory and we can take the address, we can eliminate gen_dest.
