ARMv8.3 adds pointer authentication extension, which in this case allows
to ensure that, when offloaded to stack, return address is same at return
as at entry to the subroutine. The new instructions are nops on processors
that don't implement the extension, so that the vetification is backward
compatible.

Improvement coefficients vary with TLS fragment length and platform, on
most Intel processors maximum improvement is ~50%, while on Ryzen - 80%.
The "secret" is new dedicated ChaCha20_128 code path and vectorized xor
helpers.

As it turns out originally published results were skewed by "turbo"
mode. VM apparently remains oblivious to dynamic frequency scaling,
and reports that processor operates at "base" frequency at all times.
While actual frequency gets increased under load.

Branch to global symbol results in reference to PLT, and when compiling
for THUMB-2 - in a R_ARM_THM_JUMP19 relocation. Some linkers don't
support this relocation (ld.gold), while others can end up truncating
the relocation to fit (ld.bfd).
Convert this branch through PLT into a direct branch that the assembler
can resolve locally.
See https://github.com/android-ndk/ndk/issues/337 for background.
The current workaround is to disable poly1305 optimization assembly,
which is not optimal and can be reverted after this patch:

Convert AVX512F+VL+BW code path to pure AVX512F, so that it can be
executed even on Knights Landing. Trigger for modification was
observation that AVX512 code paths can negatively affect overall
Skylake-X system performance. Since we are likely to suppress
AVX512F capability flag [at least on Skylake-X], conversion serves
as kind of "investment protection".

"Optimize" is in quotes because it's rather a "salvage operation"
for now. Idea is to identify processor capability flags that
drive Knights Landing to suboptimial code paths and mask them.
Two flags were identified, XSAVE and ADCX/ADOX. Former affects
choice of AES-NI code path specific for Silvermont (Knights Landing
is of Silvermont "ancestry"). And 64-bit ADCX/ADOX instructions are
effectively mishandled at decode time. In both cases we are looking
at ~2x improvement.
AVX-512 results cover even Skylake-X :-)

The assembler already knows the actual path to the generated file and,
in other perlasm architectures, is left to manage debug symbols itself.
Notably, in OpenSSL 1.1.x's new build system, which allows a separate
build directory, converting .pl to .s as the scripts currently do result
in the wrong paths.
This also avoids inconsistencies from some of the files using $0 and
some passing in the filename.

As hinted by its name new subroutine processes 8 input blocks in
parallel by loading data to 512-bit registers. It still needs more
work, as it needs to handle some specific input lengths better.
In this sense it's yet another intermediate step...

MIPS[32|64]R6 is binary and source incompatible with previous MIPS ISA

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.
