[Hubert Mazur]

ffmpeg | branch: master | Hubert Mazur <hum at semihalf.com> | Tue Sep 20 13:01:56 2022 +0200| [0ee535b1db392a340a86ce0581dff94624c2da06] | committer: Martin Storsjö

lavc/aarch64: Add neon implementation for pix_median_abs16

Provide optimized implementation for pix_median_abs16 function.

Performance comparison tests are shown below.
 - median_sad_0_c: 720.5
 - median_sad_0_neon: 127.2

Benchmarks and tests run with checkasm tool on AWS Graviton 3.
