Merge all the existing checks into a single one, which is a simple pass
or fail, since all our supported compilers support all the intrinsics up
to Cannon Lake. The two I've recently added (AVX512VBMI2 and VAES)
aren't yet supported everywhere, so they stay.
For some reason, all intrinsics seem to be disabled on Android. It looks
like some support was missing during the CMake port and this was never
again looked at. I'm leaving it be.
As for WASM, discussion with maintainers is that the WASM emulation of
x86 intrinsics is too hit-and-miss. No one is testing the performance,
particularly the person writing such code (me). They also have some
non-obvious selection of what is supported natively and what is
merely emulated. Using the actual WASM intrinsics is preferred, but
someone else's job.

GCC is unable to emit the SEH metadata about the stack aligning that is
required to execute AVX aligned instructions (VMOVDQA, VMOVAPS, etc.),
so it just doesn't align the stack. That causes crashes on a 50/50
chance every time the compiler attempts to address a stack-aligned
variable. In a debug-mode build, because it always loads & saves
everything on the stack, the chance of a crash happening is a near
certainty.
So we hack around it by going behind the compiler's back and instructing
the assembler to emit the unaligned counterparts of the instructions
every time the compiler wished to emit the aligned one. There's no
performance penalty: if the variable is actually aligned, the unaligned
instruction executes in the exact same time.

The Intel whitepaer[1] recommends using the RDSEED over RDRAND whenever
present. libstdc++ from GCC 10 will also use it in std::random_device.
[ChangeLog][QtCore][QRandomGenerator] The system() random generator will
now use the RDSEED instruction on x86 processors whenever available as
the first source of random data. It will fall back to RDRAND and then to
the system functions, in that order.

GCC for 64-bit Windows has a bug that it fails to properly re-align the
stack pointer for use with 256-bit memory addresses (AVX). Therefore,
there's about a 50/50 chance that any function using AVX will have an
improperly-aligned stack. In release mode, stack accesses should be
rare, but in debug mode they happen frequently. Either way, this is a
ticking time bomb, so we disable.
Clang is not affected.
32-bit MinGW is not affected.
64-bit in other OSes with GCC are not affected.

every test anyway, just reuse it.

This has two main benefits:
1) introduces a qmake CONFIG we can use in .pro/.pri/.prf files
2) removes the need to keep an up-to-date list of which compilers
support the feature
The test is implemented as trying to compile every single SIMD test we
currently have, but without passing the -mXXX option. The reason for
trying all of them is that some people may have modified their mkspecs
to add -mXXX options or -march=XXX, which could enable the particular
feature we tried, resulting in a false positive outcome.
