libretro-common/xxh3: short inputs without the seed's cost

xxh3_64 takes inputs up to 240 octets through one function per range,
and one per range for seed 0, where the secret folds into constants.
The ranges no longer share a frame, so none pays another's register
saves. Hashes are unchanged; at every length up to 240 the short path
now executes fewer instructions than xxHash's own, 70 against 75 for
64 octets, and runs about 6% faster than it there instead of 8% slower.

 # Future
+- LIBRETRO-COMMON/FLAC: 24- and 32-bit FLAC decoded to 16 bits is rounded to the nearest step instead of cut down (every sample was half a step low on average); 16-bit FLAC is unchanged
+- LIBRETRO-COMMON/FLAC: A seek in a FLAC that has a seek table lands on the frame asked for (it landed as far past it as the seek point was from the start); rflac_seek_point gives the seek point's frame
 - D3D11: Software-rendering cores draw straight into lent staging textures, copied to the frame texture on the GPU instead of by the CPU
 - VULKAN: Keep the pipeline cache on disk between runs, one file per GPU, so stock and slang shader pipelines are not recompiled by the driver on every launch, preset load or driver reinit
 - LINUX: Game Mode implemented natively (I/O priority plus a power-profiles-daemon performance hold); Feral libgamemode is no longer loaded and deps/feralgamemode is removed

+ * retro_deque.h - a double-ended queue of one type, in one block
+ *
+ * What std::deque is used for - push at either end, pop at either end,
+ * the n-th element, insert and erase in the middle, in order - without
+ * what it costs: std::deque keeps its elements in blocks of a few dozen
+ * and takes a block from the heap, or gives one back, each time its
+ * contents cross a block's end. A queue that is pushed at one end and
+ * popped at the other does that for ever, however few elements it holds.
+ *
+ * Here the elements are a ring in one block, a power of two long, set
+ * aside when the queue is made for as many elements as the caller says it
+ * holds. Pushing, popping, inserting and erasing never allocate and never
+ * free. A push or insert into a queue that holds its limit is refused,
+ * with one compare (the caller decides: drop, wait, or reserve more - the
+ * one call besides init that allocates). Where the old code relied on a
+ * queue with no limit, push_back_growing (and push_front_growing) reserves twice as much when the
+ * limit is reached, and so allocates only then.
+ *
+ * The functions are made for the element's type with
+ * RETRO_DEQUE_DEFINE(name, type), so an element is copied as what it is
+ * (a compare-and-mask and a store for a word-sized one) and not through
+ * memcpy with a size known only when the program runs:
+ *
+ *   struct deadline { uint64_t when; void *who; };
+ *   RETRO_DEQUE_DEFINE(deadlines, struct deadline)
+ *
+ *   deadlines_t q;
+ *   deadlines_init(&q, 60);                (holds 60, in a block of 64)
+ *   deadlines_push_back(&q, &d);           (false when full)
+ *   deadlines_insert(&q, 3, &d);           (before the 4th oldest)
+ *   d = *deadlines_front(&q);
+ *   deadlines_pop_front(&q);
+ *   deadlines_erase(&q, i);
+ *   deadlines_free(&q);
+ *
+ * Insert and erase move whichever side of the place is shorter, so the
+ * ends cost one element and the middle half the queue.
+ *
+ * The type has to be one C copies by assignment (anything C89 has; in
+ * C++, a trivially copyable type). Not thread safe: one thread, or the
+ * caller's own lock. C89; MSVC compiles it.
+ *
+ * The allocator is malloc and free unless RETRO_DEQUE_MALLOC and
+ * RETRO_DEQUE_FREE are defined before this header is included.

+"""Regenerates the fixtures of rflac_s16_test: FLAC streams of 16, 24 and
+32 bits, mono, stereo and six channels, made by the reference encoder
+from PCM built with integers only, which the test builds again the same
+way and so knows every sample of. The stereo streams are made so that the
+encoder picks each of the four channel assignments somewhere (checked
+here with flac --analyze), and the 32-bit one so that its side channel
+needs 33 bits. Needs flac; the committed fixtures are what CI uses."""
