Start and end index are multiple of 2, therefore guaranteeing aligned access.
Also, this allows to generate 4 floats per loop, keeping the alignment all
along.
Timing:
- 32 bits: 326c -> 172c
- 64 bits: 323c -> 156c

Prevents a signflip in the counter, and a subsequent crash because of
overreads/overwrites.

This is even potentially faster in this use-case.
Should fix AAC SBR decoding on machines with SSE but not
SSE2, fixing track issue #1041.

Since the values are floats, using the float operations
makes sense, improves performance on some CPUs and
makes the code SSE compatible instead of needing SSE2.
Based on suggestion by Jason.

movq from SSE register _to_ memory is an SSE2 instruction.
Use the SSE movlps function instead that does the same thing.

Unrolling the main loop to process, instead of 4 elements:
- 8: minor gain of 2 cycles (not worth the extra object size)
- 2: loss of 8 cycles.
Assigning STEP to a register is a loss. Output address (Y) is almost always
unaligned.
Timings:
- C (32/64 bits): 117/109 cycles
- SSE: 57 cycles

The 32bits targets have been compiled with -mfpmath=sse for proper reference.
sbr_sum_square C /32bits: 82c (unrolled)/102c
C /64bits: 69c (unrolled)/82c
SSE/32bits: 42c
SSE/64bits: 31c
Use of SSE4.1 dpps to perform the final sum is slower.
Not unrolling to perform 8 operations in a loop yields 10 more cycles.
