Confused, the changes are not for fuzzer logs but to handle jumping to
the middle of ld_imm64. Like jumping out of bounds, both are similar
issues and can be handled in one place.

The current code handles such incorrect jumps in check_ld_imm(), which
is strange, and the error log "BAD_LD_IMM" rather than "bad jump" is
also strange.

The second one is just for verifier debugging because the only
caller of check_ld_imm() is do_check(), before which we already
have resolve_pseudo_ldimm64() which has opcode_in_insntable()
to check the validity of insn code. The only reason we could see
an invalid ld_imm64 in check_id_imm() is errors somewhere else.
