checkasm: Explicitly declare function prototypes

Now we no longer have to rely on function pointers intentionally
declared without specified argument types.

This makes it easier to support functions with floating point parameters
or return values as well as functions returning 64-bit values on 32-bit
architectures. It also avoids having to explicitly cast strides to
ptrdiff_t for example.

Checkasm: assembly testing and benchmarking tool

It provides the following features:
 * verify correctness by comparing output to the C version.
 * detect failure to save and restore clobbered callee-saved registers.
 * detect 32-bit parameters being used as if they were 64-bit in x86-64
   (the upper halves are not guaranteed to be zero - but in practice
   they very often are, which makes those bugs hard to spot otherwise).
 * easy benchmarking.

Compile by running 'make checkasm'.
Execute by running 'tests/checkasm/checkasm'.

Optional arguments are '--bench' to run benchmarks for all functions,
'--bench=<pattern>' to run benchmarks for all functions that starts with
<pattern>, and '<integer>' to seed the PRNG for reproducible results.

Contains unit tests for most h264pred functions to get started, more tests
can be added afterwards using those as a reference.

Loosely based on code from x264. Currently only supports x86 and x86-64,
but additional architectures shouldn't be too much of an obstacle to add.

Note that functions with floating point parameters or floating point
return values are not supported. Some compiler-specific features or
preprocessor hacks would likely be required to add support for that.
