libavutil/cpu-test prints raw and effective cpu flags to STDERR. Detected
cpu flags can be useful for debugging fate errors.
No comparison of the result against a expected result since that would
require fate config specific references.
NEON and VFP are currently mandatory for all ARMv8 profiles. Both are
handled as extensions as far as cpuflags are concerned. This is
consistent with handling x86_64 which always has SSE2, but still
handles it as an extension.
Refactoring mmx2/mmxext YASM code with cpuflags will force renames.
So switching to a consistent naming scheme beforehand is sensible.
The name "mmxext" is more official and widespread and also the name
of the CPU flag, as reported e.g. by the Linux kernel.
This allows masking CPU features with the -cpuflags avconv option
which is useful for testing different optimisations without rebuilding.

The were broken since August of 2010 without anyone noticing until
three weeks ago. Nobody cares about it anymore and hopefully Marvell
will support NEON like in the PXA978 from now on.
The Atom has SSSE3 support, which is useful in many cases, but sometimes the
SSSE3 version is slower than the SSE2 equivalent on the Atom, but is generally
faster on other processors supporting SSSE3. This flag allows for selectively
disabling certain SSSE3 functions on the Atom.
Instead of defining functions in per-arch header files included
by the main cpu.c, define them normally and call them from the
generic one.
