Presently, pg_popcount() processes data in 32-bit or 64-bit chunks when possible. Newer hardware that supports AVX-512 instructions can use 512-bit chunks, which provides a nice speedup, especially for larger buffers. This commit introduces the infrastructure required to detect compiler and CPU support for the required AVX-512 intrinsic functions, and it adds a new pg_popcount() implementation that uses these functions. If CPU support for this optimized implementation is detected at runtime, a function pointer is updated so that it is used by subsequent calls to pg_popcount(). Most of the existing in-tree calls to pg_popcount() should benefit from these instructions, and calls with smaller buffers should at least not regress compared to v16. The new infrastructure introduced by this commit can also be used to optimize visibilitymap_count(), but that is left for a follow-up commit.
