d241616e41 AVX512 test: an intrinsic that GCC forgot to implement prior to GCC8
_mm512_mask_cvtepi32_storeu_epi8 is VPMOVDB (convert from 32-bit to 8-bit
with truncation) where the destination is a memory address, with an
OpMask register used to indicate which of the lanes in the vector to
store. Similarly, _mm512_mask_cvtepi16_storeu_epi8 is VPMOVWB (convert
from 16-bit o 8-bit), which is useful for UTF-16 to Latin1 conversion.

ff1ffa7577 Add support for AVX-512 intrinsics found in MSVC 2017 15.3
It seems the compiler supports /arch:AVX512 and /arch:AVX512F but none
of the other switches (and neither are documented). And when you pass
those, you also get Conflict Detection (CD), Double & Quad (DQ), Byte &
Word (BW) and Vector Length (VL), which matches the ICC switch
"-xCORE-AVX512". Unlike ICC, there doesn't seem to be an option to
enable only the common part of AVX-512.

Support for Intel Xeon Phi's current features (Exponential &
Reciprocation and Prefetch) and future ones (IFMA, VBMI, 4FMAPS, 4VNNI
and VPOPCNTDQ) seems to be missing altogether.

b0060d1056 configure: un-namespace remaining non-inline configure tests
only few tests remain, and many of these were mis-classified anyway.
