This allows further unrolling the DSP implementation where possible.
x86 and ARM DSP modified by simply moving the multiple calls from vc1dec
to the DSP code. Decoding improvements should only occurs because of the
compiler actually able to unroll more.

The function is assigned to a function pointer that does not have the
restrict keyword for that parameter.
This fixes compilation for MSVC builds that don't recognize "restrict",
broken since ed9625eb62.
Based on the aarch64 asm. CPU cycle counts on cortex-a9 compared to
gcc 4.8.2:
before: 475 decicycles in get_cabac_noinline, 67106035 runs, 2829 skips
after: 393 decicycles in get_cabac_noinline, 67106474 runs, 2390 skips
Overall speedup is above 2%. Code generated by clang 3.4 is slower on
the same hardware and the relative change is a little larger.
The overread avoidance fix in cbddee1cca
broke the computation for the last row since it prevented the safe
reading from the height+1-th row.

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.
The scaling factor is constant so it is faster to scale the
FIR coefficients in the tables during compilation.

The x86 runs short on registers because numerous elements are not static.

It is currently declared as a macro who is set to inlinable functions,
among which a Neon and a default C implementations.
Add a DSP parameter to each inline function, unused except by the
default C implementation which calls a function from the DSP context.
On an Arrandale CPU, gain for an inlined SSE2 function vs. a call:
- Win32: 29 to 26 cycles
- Win64: 25 to 23 cycles

The function macro always sets .align 2 before declaring the
function label (since 5c5e1ea3) and always sets the section to
.text (since 278caa6a).
The .align 5 before certain functions, added in fc252eba, were added
before .text and .align were added to the function macro and thus
became useless/unused when the function macro got them.
This restores the original intention, to align the loop entry
points.
