case 18 is more than 'bl', it includes also 'b'.
In both cases, the calculation of *immediate is the same.
It also is "ba" and "bla", sometimes written as "b[l][a]".
It would therefore be more correct to perform the calculation and setup of *immediate outside the 'if ((insn & 3) == 1)', that would avoid unnecessary churn the day we add support for branches without link.

Does this handle AA=1 correctly at all? That is valid both with and
without relocations, just like AA=0. Same for AA=1 LK=0 btw.
If you only handle AA=0, the code should explicitly test for that.
