Some debuggers/profilers use this metadata to determine which function a
given instruction is in; without it they get can confused by local labels
(if you haven't stripped those). On the other hand, some tools are still
confused even with this metadata. e.g. this fixes `gdb`, but not `perf`.
Currently only implemented for ELF.

Intel's Instruction Set Reference (as of September 2015) clearly states
that cvtpi2ps switches to MMX state. Actual CPUs do not switch if the
source is a memory location. The Instruction Set Reference from 1999
(Order Number 243191) describes this behaviour but all later versions
I've seen have make no distinction whether MMX registers or memory is
used as source.
The documentation for the matching SSE2 instruction to convert to double
(cvtpi2pd) was fixed (see the valgrind bug
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=210264).
It will take time to get a clarification and fixes in place. In the
meantime it makes sense to change ff_int32_to_float_fmul_scalar_sse to
be correct according to the documentation. The vast majority of users
will have SSE2 so a change to the SSE version has little effect.
Fixes fate-checkasm on x86 valgrind targets.

The .text section is already 16-byte aligned by default on all supported
platforms so `SECTION_TEXT` isn't any different from `SECTION .text`.

Change ALLOC_STACK to always align the stack before allocating stack space for
consistency. Previously alignment would occur either before or after allocating
stack space depending on whether manual alignment was required or not.

There is an SSE2 implementation so the SSE version is never used. The "SSE"
version also happens to contain SSE2 instructions on x86-64.

The upper halves are not guaranteed to be zero in x86-64.
Also use `test` instead of `and` when the result isn't used for anything other
than as a branch condition, this allows some register moves to be eliminated.

These function pointers already existed in the ARM code. Adding them globally
allows calls to the function pointers to access arch-optimized versions of the
functions transparently.
