ARM neon pseudo op

[Michael Mohr]

If your eventual target is a "fat" binary, using "-mfpu=neon" in CFLAGS 
is a bad idea (at least for Android).  It would be far better to 
approach the problem as Niels did, using ".fpu neon" as required.  That 
way, non-neon code can be selected at runtime if necessary for the 
critical code paths.  Certain ARM phones will have ARMv5, others ARMv7, 
and yet others ARMv7 with neon.  This information isn't available until 
runtime for an APK distributed on the Android Market.
