supports these on Linux by querying ELF auxiliary vectors (using `getauxval`

* `arm64`: partial support for doing run-time feature detection by directly
querying `mrs` is implemented for Linux >= 4.11, but not enabled by default.

* FreeBSD:
* `arm32`, `powerpc64`: `std_detect` supports these on FreeBSD by querying ELF
auxiliary vectors using `sysctl`.

* Windows:
* `arm64`: run-time feature detection is implemented by querying `IsProcessorFeaturePresent`.
