Netwide assembler is a small package, but when require it is hard to avoid it (e.g. https://github.com/google/tensorstore/issues/65#issuecomment-1324368082).

Description: General-purpose x86 assembler
Netwide Assembler. NASM will currently output flat-form binary files,
a.out, COFF and ELF Unix object files, and Microsoft 16-bit DOS and
Win32 object files.
.
Also included is NDISASM, a prototype x86 binary-file disassembler
which uses the same instruction table as NASM.
.
NASM is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL).
