The PEP 649 implementation will require a way to load NotImplementedError
from the bytecode. @markshannon suggested implementing this by converting
LOAD_ASSERTION_ERROR into a more general mechanism for loading constants.

This PR adds this new opcode. I will work on the rest of the implementation
of the PEP separately.

The previous version broke the JIT. @brandtbucher helped figure out that this is because the common_constants array is empty when the JIT is being compiled. Since there didn't seem to be a simple way to make this work correctly, we decided to simply use a switch in the interpreter code instead.
