Subject: Make push opcodes a specific bit set and add a NOOP opcode

By default, a zero initialised set of instructions are NOOPs, which is
great.

Last two bits of a push opcode is always 01.  Rest of the bits are
used to distinguish between differing types of push.  This makes it
easier to inspect on the byte level what type of opcode we have.
