title: better handling of temp reg, constant, and inner func 8-bit overflows
desc: |-
  The 8-bit limit for inner functions is actually too tight in any case;
  inner functions are loaded with CLOSURE which can address 18 bits, so
  no overflow handling is needed for CLOSURE anyway (in practice).  So,
  just revise that limit upwards.
  
  Constant overflows need to be handled such that constants outside 8-bit
  range are loaded through a temporary register.  This should be relatively
  straightforward.
  
  Register overflow is the most difficult one, and perhaps not worth fixing.
