Call instructions (`call` and `callx` but not `syscall`) do:
- Save the registers `r6`, `r7`, `r8`, `r9`, the frame pointer `r10` and the `pc` (pointing at the next instruction)
- If < v1: Add one stack frame size to the frame pointer `r10`
- If ≥ v1: Move the stack pointer `r11` into the frame pointer `r10`

The `exit` (a.k.a. return) instruction does:
- Restore the registers `r6`, `r7`, `r8`, `r9`, the frame pointer `r10` and the `pc`

- For all instructions the source register must be `r0` ≤ src ≤ `r10`
- For all instructions (except for memory writes) the destination register must be `r0` ≤ dst ≤ `r9`
- For all instructions the opcode must be valid
- Memory write instructions can use `r10` as destination register

### until v1
- No instruction can use `r11` as destination register
- Only memory write instruction can use `r10` as destination register

### from v1
- `add64 reg, imm` can use `r11` as destination register

- Opcodes from the product / quotient / remainder instruction class are forbiden
