The previous implementation targeted DTS Coherent Acoustics, which only
requires nbits == 4 (fft16()). This case was (and still is) linked directly
rather than being indirected through ff_fft_calc_vfp(), but now the full
range from radix-4 up to radix-65536 is available. This benefits other codecs
such as AAC and AC3.
The implementaion is based upon the C version, with each routine larger than
radix-16 calling a hierarchy of smaller FFT functions, then performing a
post-processing pass. This pass benefits a lot from loop unrolling to
counter the long pipelines in the VFP. A relaxed calling standard also
reduces the overhead of the call hierarchy, and avoiding the excessive
inlining performed by GCC probably helps with I-cache utilisation too.
I benchmarked the result by measuring the number of gperftools samples that
hit anywhere in the AAC decoder (starting from aac_decode_frame()) or
specifically in the FFT routines (fft4() to fft512() and pass()) for the
same sample AAC stream:

The previous implementation targeted DTS Coherent Acoustics, which only
requires mdct_bits == 6. This relatively small size lent itself to
unrolling the loops a small number of times, and encoding offsets
calculated at assembly time within the load/store instructions of each
iteration.
In the more general case (codecs such as AAC and AC3) much larger arrays
are used - mdct_bits == [8, 9, 11]. The old method does not scale for
these cases, so more integer registers are used with non-unrolled versions
of the loops (and with some stack spillage). The postrotation filter loop
is still unrolled by a factor of 2 to permit the double-buffering of some
VFP registers to facilitate overlap of neighbouring iterations.
I benchmarked the result by measuring the number of gperftools samples
that hit anywhere in the AAC decoder (starting from aac_decode_frame())
or specifically in ff_imdct_half_c / ff_imdct_half_vfp, for the same
example AAC stream:

Move the GNU as check before the arch specific asm checks since the .dn
check requires gas compatible assembler.
Disable the VC-1 motion compensation NEON asm which is the only part
using that directive. The integrated assembler in the upcoming clang 3.5
does not support .dn/.qn without plans to change that. Too much effort
to implement it while it is rarely used.

The function is assigned to a function pointer that does not have the
restrict keyword for that parameter.
This fixes compilation for MSVC builds that don't recognize "restrict",
broken since ed9625eb62.
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 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.
