If N does not fit in signed 32 bits, leaq cannot be used and mov; addq must be used instead.

This was already the case for leaq instructions produced by the Asmgen pass, but not for some leaq instructions produced by Asmexpand.

Normally, assemblers should fail if the leaq offset is not representable, but this is not always the case (see issue #406).

Fixes: #406
