Building with "make OS=android APP_ABI=armeabi" will
produce arm binaries that will conform to the armeabi
ABI - not using any features outside of armv5te by
default (but still optionally using the NEON functions at
runtime if detected - even though such devices should rather
use the default armeabi-v7a build).
In 70360cb11, the ASM variable was moved to the x86-common file
even though the android build file didn't include neither
platform-arch.mk nor platform-x86-common.mk.
Instead of explicitly declaring ASM here, include platform-arch.mk
and remove setting of the flags that platform-arch.mk sets.
This is inspired by and based on a patch by Licai Guo.
This avoids having to hardcode the names of devices that don't
support neon.
The devices that don't support neon don't run the armv7 variants
of iOS binaries at all - they would need to be built for the armv6
architecture. (Building for armv6 isn't supported at all in
modern iOS SDKs.)
Therefore we can simply use the __ARM_NEON__ built-in compiler
define to check if NEON code is allowed in the current build,
and have the WelsCPUFeatureDetect function return flags accordingly.
The only thing this disallows is doing an armv6 build which would
optionally enable neon code at runtime if run on an armv7 capable
device, but since Apple allows you to build the same binary for
armv7 separately in the same app bundle, and since armv6 building
isn't even possible in the current iOS SDKs, this isn't really a loss.
This is in contrast to the android builds where the armv7 baseline
does not include NEON.
This avoids the risk of namespace collisions for named semaphores
(where the names are global for the whole machine), on platforms
where we strictly don't need to use the named semaphores.
This unifies the event creation interface, even if the event
name itself is unused on windows, allowing use the exact same
code to initialize events regardless of the actual platform.
Some ifdefs still remain in the event initialization code, since
some events are only used on windows.
The new iOS configuration file welsenc_ios.cfg was committed with
dos newlines originally, while welsenc.cfg was accidentally changed
to dos newlines in f5cd56ea74.
