Frank Barchard 64ddbbcdde [libyuv] Optimize SsimWindowRow with SIMD and use compare_win on x86
- Route 32-bit x86 (__i386__ / _M_IX86) to compare_win.cc intrinsics
  and restrict compare_gcc.cc to 64-bit x86 (__x86_64__), avoiding
  x87 float rounding and enabling SSE2, AVX2, and AVX-512 on 32-bit
  and 64-bit MinGW, GCC, Clang, and MSan (LIBYUV_ENABLE_ROWWIN).
- Enable AVX-512BW on GCC >= 6 (GCC_HAS_AVX512) and add
  LIBYUV_TARGET_AVX512BW attributes to compare_gcc.cc and
  compare_win.cc.
- Refactor SsimWindowRow_C and Ssim8x8_C to use int32_t and float,
  and add SsimWindowRow_SSE2, SsimWindowRow_AVX2, and
  SsimWindowRow_AVX512BW in both compare_win.cc and compare_gcc.cc.
- Update TestSsimAnyWidth, Ssim, and BenchmarkSsim_Opt in
  compare_test.cc to use EXPECT_NEAR and deterministic test patterns
  (identical, different, similar).
- Update util/compare.cc and linux.mk to compute I420Ssim.

Performance (BenchmarkSsim_Opt, 1280x720):
uArch                        Before      After  Improvement
Intel Lion Cove (x64 AVX2) 120.2 us    68.1 us        1.76x
Intel Skymont (x64 SSE2)   249.6 us   146.8 us        1.70x
AMD Zen 3 (x64 AVX2)       314.9 us   150.2 us        2.10x
Intel Lion Cove (MinGW686) 203.7 us    77.9 us        2.61x
Intel Skymont (MinGW686)   338.8 us   167.5 us        2.02x
AMD Zen 3 (i686 AVX2)      738.4 us   206.5 us        3.58x

Quality (util/compare on 640x360 I420 test images):
Image Comparison                MSE       PSNR         SSIM
Identical (orig vs orig)       0.00  128.00 dB     1.000000
Similar (light +/-3 noise)     4.57   41.53 dB     0.956556
Degraded (16x16 blocky)       98.18   28.21 dB     0.858893
Very different (inverted)  11160.29    7.65 dB     0.000181
