[committed] Fix length computation of single bit bitfield extraction on H8

Various approaches are used to optimize extracting a sign extended 
single bit bitfield.  The length computation of 10 bytes was 
conservatively correct, but inaccurate.

In particular when the bit we want is in the low half word we don't need 
the move high half to low half instruction.  Account for that in the 
length computation.

This was spotted when looking at regressions in the generalized signed 
bitfield extraction pattern.

This has been regression tested on the H8 port.

Pushing to the trunk,
