Called by InstructionList.setPositions when setting the position for every instruction. In the presence of variable length instructions `setPositions' performs multiple passes over the instruction list to calculate the correct (byte) positions and offsets by calling this function.

Returns:additional offset caused by possible change of this instruction's length
