You could take ideas from gnu as, if you're willing to comply with the license.

I found sandpile.orginvaluable for writing my assembler; SoftWire. The source is available under LGPL so you should be able to use it for your own project.

I know you already said that you dont want to read CPU manual. But there is an appendix B in
"Intel 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual
Volume 2B: Instruction Set Reference, N-Z" http://www.intel.com/products/processor/manuals/
that details encoding for all the instrunctions in one place. May be helpful.

There is very nice multi platform open source assembler available YASM http://www.tortall.net/projects/yasm/

it supports nasm and GNU syntax, supports AVX ... it handles all instructions' definitions gracefully in one single python script file gen_x86_insn.py - suggest you to take a look.
