Compare the gasm encoder for the given architecture (default amd64) against
go tool asm and print the diff: superset encodings (gasm-only, shippable via
gasm asm --format goobj), known-but-unencodable names (the backlog) and go-
only names (feature gaps). The Go side is probed black-box with a battery
of bare mnemonics, so the audit tracks whatever toolchain `+"`go env GOROOT`"+`
provides.
With --corpus the audit changes shape: it assembles every .s file under the
given directory (default GOROOT/src) with the gasm encoder only, no
toolchain probing. A file whose name carries a recognisable _arch suffix is
attempted for that architecture; a file without one is attempted for all
four, exactly as a GOARCH build would compile it. The report gives the
per-architecture pass rates and the most common failure reasons, which drive
the encodability backlog by frequency rather than by table order.

With `--corpus` the audit changes shape: it assembles every `.s` file under
DIR (default `GOROOT/src`) with the gasm encoder only, no toolchain probing.
A file whose name carries a recognisable `_arch` suffix is attempted for that
architecture; a file without one is attempted for all four, exactly as a
`GOARCH` build would compile it. The report gives the headline number (files
that assemble for every target architecture), the per-architecture pass rates
and the most common failure reasons with one representative file each, which
drive the encodability backlog by frequency rather than by table order. A run
over GOROOT takes under a second.
