[AArch64] Avoid partial vector stores in ScaleRowDown38_NEON

The existing code performs a pair of stores since there is no AArch64
instruction in Neon to store exactly 12 bytes from a vector register.

It is guaranteed to be safe to write full vectors until the last
iteration of the loop, since the extra four bytes will be over-written
by subsequent iterations. This allows us to avoid duplicating the store
instruction and address arithmetic.

Reduction in runtime observed relative to the existing Neon
implementation:

 Cortex-A55:  +2.0%
Cortex-A510: -25.3%
Cortex-A520: -15.1%
 Cortex-A76: -32.2%
Cortex-A715: -19.7%
Cortex-A720: -19.6%
  Cortex-X1: -31.6%
  Cortex-X2: -27.1%
  Cortex-X3: -25.9%
  Cortex-X4: -24.7%
Cortex-X925: -35.8%

libyuv is an open source project that includes YUV scaling and conversion functionality.

  • Scale YUV to prepare content for compression, with point, bilinear or box filter.
  • Convert to YUV from webcam formats for compression.
  • Convert to RGB formats for rendering/effects.
  • Rotate by 90/180/270 degrees to adjust for mobile devices in portrait mode.
  • Optimized for SSSE3/AVX2 on x86/x64.
  • Optimized for Neon/SVE2/SME on Arm.
  • Optimized for MSA on Mips.
  • Optimized for RVV on RISC-V.
