Subject: [PATCH 1/5] [MC][AsmParser] Fix all FIXME comments in AsmParser.cpp

Resolve 11 FIXME items across AsmParser.cpp, covering diagnostics,
parsing behavior, and documentation gaps.

This is a preliminary patch to get early feedback on the overall approach.
Core parser logic and tests (`assembler-expressions.s`) are functional.
Comments and documentation will be refined after the architectural approach is approved.
