cf. #56

Replacement for simd + simd_opt features. Builds on stable rustc 1.27+

The coresimd feature overrides all other simd flags. Build with coresimd will fail for unsupported target platforms, e.g. non-x86.

Benched on a Xeon X5650:
sse2 only: faster than simd_opt
ssse3: slightly faster than simd_opt

Benched on a Haswell:
avx2: same speed as simd_opt

NB. the standard CI settings won't test this properly since it introduces a new feature

Thank you!

You can introduce a separate line for CI like was done for testing AES-NI. I will try to review both of your blake2 PRs on this weekend.

This will test the sse2 and probably ssse3 coresimd implementations. If
the buildbox happens to support avx2, it will also test the avx2
implementations.

@kazcw are you interested in continuing to work on this PR, and if so, can you rebase?

@tarcieri As with #70, better to start from scratch at this point.
