clang now (in the upcoming 5.0 version) is capable of building our
arm assembly without relying on gas-preprocessor, although clang/LLVM
doesn't support .dn register aliases.
The VC1 MC assembly was only built and used if the chosen assembler
supported the .dn directives though. This was supported as long as
gas-preprocessor was used.
This means that VC1 decoding got a speed regression on clang 5.0,
unless the user manually chose using gas-preprocessor again.
By avoiding using the .dn register aliases, we can build the VC1 MC
assembly with the latest clang version.
Support for the .dn/.qn directives in clang/LLVM isn't actively planned,
see https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18199.

idct: Change type of array stride parameters to ptrdiff_t

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.

This allows further unrolling the DSP implementation where possible.
x86 and ARM DSP modified by simply moving the multiple calls from vc1dec
to the DSP code. Decoding improvements should only occurs because of the
compiler actually able to unroll more.
Decoding time: ~8.80s -> 8.64s (ie around 2%)
