As it turns out branch hints grew as kind of a misconception. In
addition their interpretation by GNU assembler is affected by
assembler flags and can end up with opposite meaning on different
processors. As we have to loose quite a lot on misinterprerations,
especially on newer processors, we just omit them altogether.

Some of these scripts would recognise an output parameter if it looks
like a file path. That works both in both the classic and new build
schemes. Some fo these scripts would only recognise it if it's a
basename (i.e. no directory component). Those need to be corrected,
as the output parameter in the new build scheme is more likely to
contain a directory component than not.

This gets rid of the BEGINRAW..ENDRAW sections in crypto/aes/build.info.
This also moves the assembler generating perl scripts to take the
output file name as last command line argument, where necessary.

Make all scripts produce .S, make interpretation of $(CFLAGS)
pre-processor's responsibility, start accepting $(PERLASM_SCHEME).
[$(PERLASM_SCHEME) is redundant in this case, because there are
no deviataions between Solaris and Linux assemblers. This is
purely to unify .pl->.S handling across all targets.]

It was also found that stich performs suboptimally on AMD Jaguar, hence
execution is limited to XOP-capable and Intel processors.

As some of ARM processors, more specifically Cortex-Mx series, are
Thumb2-only, we need to support Thumb2-only builds even in assembly.

This leaves behind files with names ending with '.iso-8859-1'. These
should be safe to remove. If something went wrong when re-encoding,
there will be some files with names ending with '.utf8' left behind.

This addresses
- request for improvement for faster key setup in RT#3576;
- clearing registers and stack in RT#3554 (this is more of a gesture to
see if there will be some traction from compiler side);
- more commentary around input parameters handling and stack layout
(desired when RT#3553 was reviewed);
- minor size and single block performance optimization (was lying around);

ARM has optimized Cortex-A5x pipeline to favour pairs of complementary
AES instructions. While modified code improves performance of post-r0p0
Cortex-A53 performance by >40% (for CBC decrypt and CTR), it hurts
original r0p0. We favour later revisions, because one can't prevent
future from coming. Improvement on post-r0p0 Cortex-A57 exceeds 50%,
while new code is not slower on r0p0, or Apple A7 for that matter.
[Update even SHA results for latest Cortex-A53.]

This facilitates "universal" builds, ones that target multiple
architectures, e.g. ARMv5 through ARMv7. See commentary in
Configure for details.
