Martin Storsjö 6258e61c4d configure: Fix detection of SME
Older versions of Clang (Xcode 14, llvm.org Clang 13 and 14)
do support and recognize SME, but when enabled through
".arch_extension sme" it fails to transitively enable support
for Streaming SVE; this was fixed in [1].

This issue results in those versions currently detecting support
for SME, but later failing to build cpu_sme.s with errors like
"error: instruction requires: sve or sme" or "error: instruction
requires: streaming-sve or sve", on the "cntb x0" instruction.

Extend the check for this instruction set extension, to test
with two instructions, both specifically a SME instruction
(smstart) and an instruction that is available in Streaming SVE
mode (cntb).

For the configure check, add an extra parameter to
check_archext_insn for an optional second instruction to check.

It would be tempting to just pass both instructions through
the same parameter, as "smstart; cntb x0". However, Darwin
targets use a different token (%%) for starting a new
instruction on the same line - those targets interpret ";"
as the start of a comment. Due to that, such a check would
entirely ignore the second instruction on Darwin targets.

To avoid dealing with the variability in passing multiple
instructions on one line, just pass the optional second
instruction on a separate line.

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.
