#1642: [DEPRECATION] ops which modify registers that are not their direct
arguments

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
The interface contract on ops currently allows them to modify registers
that aren't their arguments. This is not particularily useful and makes
optimizers harder.
As far as I know, the only ops that modify registers which are not their
arguments are clear[insp] and set[insp]_ind. These are also deprecated.
