Add ARM HW feature detection module and add NEON detection
* configure.ac: Add option --disable-neon-support. (HAVE_GCC_INLINE_ASM_NEON): New. (ENABLE_NEON_SUPPORT): New. [arm]: Add 'hwf-arm.lo' as HW feature module. * src/Makefile.am: Add 'hwf-arm.c'. * src/g10lib.h (HWF_ARM_NEON): New macro. * src/global.c (hwflist): Add HWF_ARM_NEON entry. * src/hwf-arm.c: New file. * src/hwf-common.h (_gcry_hwf_detect_arm): New prototype. * src/hwfeatures.c (_gcry_detect_hw_features) [HAVE_CPU_ARCH_ARM]: Add call to _gcry_hwf_detect_arm. -- Add HW detection module for detecting ARM NEON instruction set. ARM does not have cpuid instruction so we have to rely on OS to pass feature set information to user-space. For linux, NEON support can be detected by parsing '/proc/self/auxv' for hardware capabilities information. For other OSes, NEON can be detected by checking if platform/compiler only supports NEON capable CPUs (by check if __ARM_NEON__ macro is defined).
