libavfilter/x86/vf_gblur: add localbuf and ff_horiz_slice_avx2/512()

We introduced a ff_horiz_slice_avx2/512() implemented on a new algorithm.
In a nutshell, the new algorithm does three things, gathering data from
8/16 rows, blurring data, and scattering data back to the image buffer.
Here we used a customized transpose 8x8/16x16 to avoid the huge overhead
brought by gather and scatter instructions, which is dependent on the
temporary buffer called localbuf added newly.

Performance data:
ff_horiz_slice_avx2(old): 109.89
ff_horiz_slice_avx2(new): 666.67
ff_horiz_slice_avx512: 1000
