Fix Neon SIMD build issues with Visual Studio
- Use the _M_ARM and _M_ARM64 macros provided by Visual Studio for
compile-time detection of Arm builds, since __arm__ and __aarch64__
are only present in GNU-compatible compilers.
- Neon/intrinsics: Use the _CountLeadingZeros() and
_CountLeadingZeros64() intrinsics provided by Visual Studio, since
__builtin_clz() and __builtin_clzl() are only present in
GNU-compatible compilers.
- Neon/intrinsics: Since Visual Studio does not support static vector
initialization, replace static initialization of Neon vectors with the
appropriate intrinsics. Compared to the static initialization
approach, this produces identical assembly code with both GCC and
Clang.
- Neon/intrinsics: Since Visual Studio does not support inline assembly
code, provide alternative code paths for Visual Studio whenever inline
assembly is used.
- Build: Set FLOATTEST appropriately for AArch64 Visual Studio builds
(Visual Studio does not emit fused multiply-add [FMA] instructions by
default for such builds.)
- Neon/intrinsics: Move temporary buffer allocation outside of nested
loops. Since Visual Studio configures Arm builds with a relatively
small amount of stack memory, attempting to allocate those buffers
within the inner loops caused a stack overflow.

Neon: Auto-detect compiler intrinsics completeness
This allows the Neon intrinsics code to be built successfully (albeit
likely with reduced run-time performance) with Xcode 5.0-6.2
(iOS/AArch64) and Android NDK < r19 (AArch32). Note that Xcode 5.0-6.2
will not build the Armv8 GAS code without gas-preprocessor.pl, and no
version of Xcode will build the Armv7 GAS code without
gas-preprocessor.pl, so we always use the full Neon intrinsics
implementation by default with macOS and iOS builds.
Auto-detecting the completeness of the compiler's set of Neon intrinsics
also allows us to more intelligently set the default value of
NEON_INTRINSICS, based on the values of HAVE_VLD1*. This is a
reasonable, albeit imperfect, proxy for whether a compiler has a full
and optimal set of Neon intrinsics. Specific notes:
- 64-bit RGB-to-YCbCr color conversion
does not use any of the intrinsics in question, regresses with GCC
- 64-bit accurate integer forward DCT
uses vld1_s16_x3(), regresses with GCC
- 64-bit Huffman encoding
uses vld1q_u8_x4(), regresses with GCC
- 64-bit YCbCr-to-RGB color conversion
does not use any of the intrinsics in question, regresses with GCC
- 64-bit accurate integer inverse DCT
uses vld1_s16_x3(), regresses with GCC
- 64-bit 4x4 inverse DCT
uses vld1_s16_x3(). I did not test this algorithm in isolation, so
it may in fact regress with GCC, but the regression may be hidden by
the speedup from the new SIMD-accelerated upsampling algorithms.
- 32-bit RGB-to-YCbCr color conversion:
uses vld1_u16_x2(), regresses with GCC
- 32-bit accurate integer forward DCT
uses vld1_s16_x3(), regression irrelevant because there was no
previous implementation
- 32-bit accurate integer inverse DCT
uses vld1_s16_x3(), regresses with GCC
- 32-bit fast integer inverse DCT
does not use any of the intrinsics in question, regresses with GCC
- 32-bit 4x4 inverse DCT
uses vld1_s16_x3(). I did not test this algorithm in isolation, so
it may in fact regress with GCC, but the regression may be hidden by
the speedup from the new SIMD-accelerated upsampling algorithms.
Presumably when GCC includes a full and optimal set of Neon intrinsics,
the HAVE_VLD1* tests will pass, and the full Neon intrinsics
implementation will be enabled automatically.
