From: Zuoqiang He <[email protected]> This adds an ARM NEON optimized implementation of the NAL startcode search function. Performance testing shows approximately 3.7-4x speedup on ARMv8-A platforms with NEON support.
The optimization uses 64-byte NEON vector blocks to quickly scan for the 00 00 01 startcode pattern, falling back to the existing C code for smaller buffers or when NEON is not available. Performance improvement on ARMv8-A (Cortex-A76): ~3.7-4x faster Tested with FATE suite and custom H.264 streams.
