Based on the aarch64 asm. CPU cycle counts on cortex-a9 compared to
gcc 4.8.2:
before: 475 decicycles in get_cabac_noinline, 67106035 runs, 2829 skips
after: 393 decicycles in get_cabac_noinline, 67106474 runs, 2390 skips
Overall speedup is above 2%. Code generated by clang 3.4 is slower on
the same hardware and the relative change is a little larger.
The overread avoidance fix in cbddee1cca
broke the computation for the last row since it prevented the safe
reading from the height+1-th row.

The vector dequantization has a test in a loop preventing effective SIMD
implementation. By moving it out of the loop, this loop can be DSPized.
Therefore, modify the current DSP implementation. In particular, the
DSP implementation no longer has to handle null loop sizes.
The decode_hf implementations have following timings:
For x86 Arrandale:
C SSE SSE2 SSE4
win32: 260 162 119 104
win64: 242 N/A 89 72
The arm NEON optimizations follow in a later patch as external asm. The
now unused check for the y modifier in arm inline asm is removed from
configure.
The scaling factor is constant so it is faster to scale the
FIR coefficients in the tables during compilation.

The x86 runs short on registers because numerous elements are not static.
In addition, splitting them allows more optimized code, at least for x86.

It is currently declared as a macro who is set to inlinable functions,
among which a Neon and a default C implementations.
Add a DSP parameter to each inline function, unused except by the
default C implementation which calls a function from the DSP context.
On an Arrandale CPU, gain for an inlined SSE2 function vs. a call:
- Win32: 29 to 26 cycles
- Win64: 25 to 23 cycles

The function macro always sets .align 2 before declaring the
function label (since 5c5e1ea3) and always sets the section to
.text (since 278caa6a).
The .align 5 before certain functions, added in fc252eba, were added
before .text and .align were added to the function macro and thus
became useless/unused when the function macro got them.
This restores the original intention, to align the loop entry
points.

When building for iOS in thumb mode, gas-preprocessor.pl doesn't
mark unused labels as thumb functions (as it does for other
local labels, where it can figure out that they are functions
due to being referenced in branch instructions). This leads to
linker warnings for some of those local labels, such as:
ld: warning: ARM function not 4-byte aligned: __a_evaluation from
libavcodec/libavcodec.a(simple_idct_arm.o)
Therefore, comment them out since they don't have any function.
They do still have a value in documenting key points in the
assembly source though.

Now, nellymoserenc and aacenc no longer depends on dsputil. Independent
of this patch, wmaprodec also does not depend on dsputil, so I removed
it from there also.
libavutil/arm/asm.S sets '.arch' depending on HAVE_ARMV5TE so that
assembling armv5te code will always succeed even if the default -march
flag does not support it. HAVE_ARMV5TE_EXTERNAL tests assembling code
with the default arch.
Fixes the missing symbol ff_prefetch_arm with --cpu= not including
armv5te.

When initialising an FFTContext for a plain FFT, mdct_bits is not set

The clang integrated assembler does not support pre-UAL syntax,
while gcc requires pre-UAL syntax for ARM code. A patch[1] for
clang to support the old syntax as well has been ignored since
January.
This patch chooses the syntax appropriate for each compiler,
allowing both to build the code. Notably, this change allows
building for iphone with the latest Apple Xcode update.
