This commit update runtime check of AVX512, and implements avx512 of
xbzrle_encode_buffer function to accelerate xbzrle encoding speed.
Compared with C version of xbzrle_encode_buffer function, avx512 version
can achieve almost 60%-70% performance improvement on unit test provided
by Qemu. In addition, we provide one more unit test called
"test_encode_decode_random", in which dirty data are randomly located in
4K page, and this case can achieve almost 140% performance gain.
