The vector mode was deprecated in ARMv7-A/VFPv3 and various cpu
implementations do not support it in hardware. Vector mode code will
depending the OS either be emulated in software or result in an illegal
instruction on cpus which does not support it. This was not really
problem in practice since NEON implementations of the same functions are
preferred. It will however become a problem for checkasm which tests
every cpu flag separately.
Since this is a cpu feature newer cpu do not support anymore the
behaviour of this flag differs from the other flags. It can be only
activated by runtime cpu feature selection.
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.

This allows masking CPU features with the -cpuflags avconv option
which is useful for testing different optimisations without rebuilding.
