x86emu: fix jump_near_IMM to handle DATA: flag correctly
Before (data flag ignored -> broken): 66 DATA: e944f1 JMP 1ff6 After (fixed): 66 DATA: e944f1ffff JMP 00001ff8 This subtle difference in the length of decoded instruction meant that the VBE call jumped to the routine setting AX=0x14F (VBE Failed) instead of the routine that set AX=0x4F (VBE success). The ability to run the same code in vm86 significantly aided the debugging of this issue. Those X.org developers who would like to drop vm86 better take special care towards _all_ vesa bugs, as those will expose further issues.
