1b8a43a0ba util: Remove util_cpu_detect
util_cpu_detect is an anti-pattern: it relies on callers high up in the call
chain initializing a local implementation detail. As a real example, I added:

...a Mali compiler unit test
...that called bi_imm_f16() to construct an FP16 immediate
...that calls _mesa_float_to_half internally
...that calls util_get_cpu_caps internally, but only on x86_64!
...that relies on util_cpu_detect having been called before.

As a consequence, this unit test:

...crashes on x86_64 with USE_X86_64_ASM set
...passes on every other architecture
...works on my local arm64 workstation and on my test board
...failed CI which runs on x86_64
...needed to have a random util_cpu_detect() call sprinkled in.

This is a bad design decision. It pollutes the tree with magic, it causes
mysterious CI failures especially for non-x86_64 developers, and it is not
justified by a micro-optimization.

Instead, let's call util_cpu_detect directly from util_get_cpu_caps, avoiding
the footgun where it fails to be called.  This cleans up Mesa's design,
simplifies the tree, and avoids a class of a (possibly platform-specific)
failures. To mitigate the added overhead, wrap it all in a (fast) atomic
load check and declare the whole thing as ATTRIBUTE_CONST so the
compiler will CSE calls to util_cpu_detect.

d411691965 aco/tests: Use _exit in child process
Since the child process doesn't call exec(), exit() attempted to run
atexit handlers registered by the parent process. This could result in
the child process hanging in exit() if there were still disk cache
threads alive when the parent process called fork(). (The CI runners
hit this multiple times when running tests in strace)

a9618e7c42 util: Add accessor for util_cpu_caps
In release builds, there should be no change, but in debug builds the
assert will help us catch undefined behavior resulting from using
util_cpu_caps before it is initialized.

With fix for u_half_test for MSVC from Jesse Natalie squashed in.

6a246f5c6d aco/tests: Fix deadlock for too large test lists
The write() to the communication pipe shared with check_output.py would block
for large test output streams since the pipe's consumer wouldn't be launched
until the write already completed.
