The .text section is already 16-byte aligned by default on all supported
platforms so `SECTION_TEXT` isn't any different from `SECTION .text`.

Sandy Bridge Win64:
180 cycles in ff_synth_filter_inner_sse2
150 cycles in ff_synth_filter_inner_avx
Also switch some instructions to a three operand format to avoid
assembly errors with Yasm 1.1.0 or older.

The vector dequantization has a test in a loop preventing effective SIMD
implementation. By moving it out of the loop, this loop can be DSPized.
Therefore, modify the current DSP implementation. In particular, the
DSP implementation no longer has to handle null loop sizes.
The decode_hf implementations have following timings:
For x86 Arrandale:
C SSE SSE2 SSE4
win32: 260 162 119 104
win64: 242 N/A 89 72
The arm NEON optimizations follow in a later patch as external asm. The
now unused check for the y modifier in arm inline asm is removed from
configure.
Timings for Arrandale:
C SSE
win32: 2108 334
win64: 1152 322
Factorizing the inner loop with a call/jmp is a >15 cycles cost, even with
the jmp destination being aligned.
Unrolling for ARCH_X86_64 is a 20 cycles gain.

For the callable function (as opposed to the inline one):
C SSE SSE2 SSE4
Win32: 47 42 29 26
Win64: 30 33 25 23
The SSE version is neither compiled nor set for ARCH_X86_64, as the
inlinable function takes over.
