Timothy B. Terriberry 972a34ec2c Add ARMv4/ARMv5E macros.
Original patch by Aurélien Zanelli <aurelien.zanelli@parrot.com>:
 http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/opus/2013-May/002078.html

Revised version:
- Add autconf detection (ported from libtheora).
- Rename ARM5E to ARMv5E (an ARM5 is not the same thing as ARMv5!).
- Use actual macros so they can still be selectively overridden.
- Split out ARMv4 parts and add a few more ARMv4 macros.
- Label blocks to make them easy to find in generated assembly.
- Fix MULT16_32_Q15() so we can pass make check.
  The MDCT test passes in values larger than 2**30 for b.
  The new version should be just as fast (or faster, since it's
   easier to merge the shift with following instructions), and
   there's no appreciable impact on accuracy (FFT/MDCT SNR actually
   goes up in most cases).
- Fix register constraints.
  We were using early-clobber flags in a bunch of places that
   didn't need them, and commutative-pair flags in a bunch of
   places that weren't actually commutative.
  This was Jean-Marc's fault (the original code came from Speex).
- Simplify silk_CLZ16().
- Port over iFFT C_MULC asm by Andree Buschmann
   <AndreeBuschmann@t-online.de> from Rockbox.
- Speed up the C_MULC asm by using LDRD, allowing more flexible
   addressing, re-ordering instructions to avoid some stalls,
   allowing more flexible register allocation, and getting things
   out of the inline asm block so the compiler can schedule them
   better.
- Add C_MUL and C_MUL4 asm for the FFT to the encoder based, on the
   new C_MULC.

In total, this patch gives a 22.3% speed-up on test_opus_encoder on
 a 600 MHz Cortex A8 using gcc 4.2.1,
When restricted to ARMv4 optimizations, it gives a 9.6% speed-up
 on the same processor/compiler.
On the conformance test vectors:
 Average mono quality is 97.0583 %
 Average stereo quality is 97.775 %
