configure: Provide option to explicitly disable AVX2

The configure script detects if the compiler has AVX2 support and
automatically sets avx2_opt="yes" which in turn defines CONFIG_AVX2_OPT.
There is no way of explicitly overriding this setting so this commit adds
two command-line options: --enable-avx2 and --disable-avx2.

The default behaviour, when no option is specified, is to maintain the
current behaviour and enable AVX2 if the compiler supports it.
