FS#6670 - Small dct32 routine for the MPA codec

The dct32 routine in libmad/synth.c is pretty big and it causes lots of cache misses. I have written a smaller one in ARM assembler. It isn't as optimal in terms of number of arithmetic operations, but it's much more cache friendly because of smaller code size. It helps a lot on Iriver iFP where SRAM is really slow. I would like someone with other ARM targets to check if it helps on them as well.

The routine is currently compiled to SRAM, but I suppose it's worth trying to move it to IRAM.

Moved to  FS#6705 

What are we looking for? I've tested this on a 5.5G 30GB Video iPod

As tested by Preglow on Feb 18th (see irc logs), it doesn't improve performance on Ipod (I'm not sure which model). We were looking for smaller boost ratio (info→debug→view audio thread).

Okay what about  FS#6357  does that help or is it an outdated patch?
