asm-tests/i386-pc: Check that movl is 5 bytes.

Browse source 
LLVM 3.9 now emits short form of jump instructions, but it is still using
32 bit addresses for some movl instructions. Fortunately it was caught early:

clang ... boot/i386/pc/boot.S
clang -cc1as: fatal error: error in backend: invalid .org offset '440' (at offset '441')

Add additional check to catch it during configure run and force -no-integrated-as.

Closes: 49200

Starting with 3.9 clang emits 3-byte jumps but still creates 8-bytes movl
