The .text section is already 16-byte aligned by default on all supported
platforms so `SECTION_TEXT` isn't any different from `SECTION .text`.

Change ALLOC_STACK to always align the stack before allocating stack space for
consistency. Previously alignment would occur either before or after allocating
stack space depending on whether manual alignment was required or not.

Emulation requires a temporary register if arguments 1 and 4 are the same; this
doesn't obey the semantics of the original instruction, so we can't emulate
that in x86inc.
Also add pmacsdql emulation.

Silences warning(s) like:
libavcodec/x86/fft.asm:93: warning: section flags ignored on
section redeclaration
The cause of this warning is that because `struc` and `endstruc`
attempts to revert to the previous section state [1].
The section state is stored in the macro __SECT__, defined by
x86inc.asm to be `.note.GNU-stack ...`, through the `SECTION`
directive [2].
Thus, the `.note.GNU-stack` section is defined twice
(once in x86inc.asm, once during `endstruc`), causing the warning.
That is the first part of the commit: using the primitive `[section]` format
for .note.GNU-stack etc., which does not update `__SECT__` [2].
That fixes only half of the problem. Even without any `SECTION` directives,
`__SECT__` is predefined as `.text`, which conflicting with the later
`SECTION_TEXT` (which expands to `.text align=16`).

Automatically use VEX-encoding in AVX/AVX2/XOP/FMA3/FMA4
functions for all instructions that exists in a VEX-encoded
version.
This change makes it easier to extend existing code to use AVX2.
Also add support for AVX emulation of a few instructions that
were missing before.

Prevents a crash if the misaligned exception mask bit is
cleared for some reason.
Misaligned SSE functions are only used on AMD Phenom CPUs
and the benefit is miniscule. They also require modifying
the MXCSR control register and by removing those functions
we can get rid of that complexity altogether.

Store XMM6 and XMM7 in the shadow space in functions that
clobbers them. This way we don't have to adjust the stack
pointer as often, reducing the number of instructions as
well as code size.

Now RET checks whether it immediately follows a branch, so the
programmer dosen't have to keep track of that condition. REP_RET
is still needed manually when it's a branch target, but that's
much rarer.
The implementation involves lots of spurious labels, but that's OK
because we strip them.

It appears that something goes wrong in old nasm versions when the
%+ operator is used in the last argument of a macro invocation and
this argument is tested with %ifdef within the macro. This patch
rearranges the macro arguments such that the %+ operator is never
used in the last argument.
nasm does not support 'CPU foonop' directives. This adds a configure
test for the directive and uses it only if supported.

Currently there is a wild mix of 3dn2/3dnow2/3dnowext. Switching to
"3dnowext", which is a more common name of the CPU flag, as reported
e.g. by the Linux kernel, unifies this.
This allows us to unconditionally set the cglobal num_args
parameter to a bigger value, thus making writing yasm code
even easier than before.
