"""Semantic normalization of Dalvik/smali instructions.

Analogous to Binary Ninja's LLIL normalization: strips register allocation
noise and instruction encoding variants while preserving semantic operations.

Three normalization levels (most aggressive to most detailed):
  - 'category':    semantic category only (MOV, ALU, CALL, ...)
  - 'opcode':      base opcode, width-invariant (add, sub, invoke, ...)
  - 'opcode_api':  opcode category + API method/field references for
                   invoke/field/alloc instructions (default for MinHash)

References:
  - Smali+ 12-category reduction (Canfora et al.)
  - MOSDroid opcode family grouping
  - DroidSIFT/DroidSim API-sensitive similarity
