configure does check for isatty, and checkasm properly checks
HAVE_ISATTY, but on some platforms (e.g. WinRT), io.h needs to be
included for isatty to be available.

It provides the following features:
* verify correctness by comparing output to the C version.
* detect failure to save and restore clobbered callee-saved registers.
* detect 32-bit parameters being used as if they were 64-bit in x86-64
(the upper halves are not guaranteed to be zero - but in practice
they very often are, which makes those bugs hard to spot otherwise).
* easy benchmarking.
Compile by running 'make checkasm'.
Execute by running 'tests/checkasm/checkasm'.
Optional arguments are '--bench' to run benchmarks for all functions,
'--bench=<pattern>' to run benchmarks for all functions that starts with
<pattern>, and '<integer>' to seed the PRNG for reproducible results.
Contains unit tests for most h264pred functions to get started, more tests
can be added afterwards using those as a reference.
Loosely based on code from x264. Currently only supports x86 and x86-64,
but additional architectures shouldn't be too much of an obstacle to add.
Note that functions with floating point parameters or floating point
return values are not supported. Some compiler-specific features or
preprocessor hacks would likely be required to add support for that.
