serialize_minsn

summary: serialize and deserialize a microcode instruction (minsn_t)

description:

Generates microcode for the current function, takes its first instruction, serializes it to a byte string, and then deserializes those bytes back into a fresh minsn_t. equal_insns() is used to confirm the round trip preserves the structure.

Note: minsn_t::deserialize is an instance method (returns bool), not a static factory like mba_t::deserialize / cfunc_t::deserialize. We construct an empty minsn_t with minsn_t(ea) and deserialize into it.

This is the minsn_t-level counterpart to serialize.py, which round-trips a whole mba_t / cfunc_t pair.
