As .rodata isn't one of the default created sections for COFF, it was
created as a read-write data section. By using the default .rdata
section name for COFF, it automatically becomes a read-only data section.
The existing ".section .rodata" works as intended for ELF though.
This is based on an original patch and diagnose by Tom Tan
<Tom.Tan@microsoft.com>.

The extra space got included as part of the expansion of ELF, which
later interfered with gas-preprocessor which earlier only stripped out
leftover lines starting with '#' if the line started with that char.

On windows, the offset for the relocation doesn't get stored in
the relocation itself, but as an unsigned immediate in the opcode.
Therefore, negative offsets has to be handled via a separate sub
instruction, just as on MachO.

This fixes building with clang for linux with PIC enabled.

With apple tools, the linker fails with errors like these, if the
offset is negative:
ld: in section __TEXT,__text reloc 8: symbol index out of range for architecture arm64

The ISB (instruction synchronization barrier) might be too heavy for
START/STOPTIMER use but should be more accurate in checkasm where the
timing overhead is subtracted.
Both gnu as and clang treat lines starting with '#' as comments if they
aren't consumed by the C-style preprocessor.
Using '//' does not work with clang since comments are removed before
macro expansion.
This fixes building in PIC mode with gas. The examples in the gas
manual showed using a # here even though gas itself actually didn't
support that syntax (and the gas test suite only tests it without
the extra hash sign).

Ported from arm NEON and added vector_dmul_scalar.
Functions between 1.5 and 5 times faster than the C implementations
using Apple's clang-503.0.19 on A7.
NEON and VFP are currently mandatory for all ARMv8 profiles. Both are
handled as extensions as far as cpuflags are concerned. This is
consistent with handling x86_64 which always has SSE2, but still
handles it as an extension.
