Symmetric Quant indirect Conv kernel for ARMv8 A55 chip (#10862)
ARM a55 micro-architecture (with dot product instructions), similar to a53, is widely used as little cores in big.Little configurations. A55 has a narrower memory load/store hardware, where a 128b load instruction would block the pipeline for 2 whole cycles, during which no other instructions can be executed. On the other hand, a 64b load instruction can be duo issued with many other instructions.

This change adds a Symmetric Quant indirect Conv kernel for a55 micro-architecture, where we replace

ldr q4,[x1],

with

ldr d4,[x1],
ldr x11,[x1],
ins v4.d[1],x11

so that we can try to hide the memory load cycles behind computing cycles in the kernel.

With this new kernel, cartoongan model shows significant perf improvement on Pixel5a little cores (2 threads running on two little cores):

new kernel: 2188.59 ms
old kernel: 2360.61 ms
