8310b2d5d3 Optimize bli_arch_query_id and related functions
bli_arch_query_id() is used to select kernels in optimized BLAS APIs. Previous
implementation incurred the overhead of multiple function calls. This has
been reduced by:
- Changing the function to be defined in a header file so it can be inlined.
- Avoiding call to bli_arch_check_id_once that was a wrapper for a call to
  bli_pthread_once. Instead bli_pthread_once is called directly.
- For builds with a single BLIS sub-configuration, correct arch_id is taken
  directly from a header file in the corresponding config subdirectory,
  avoiding the bli_pthread_once call and making the value explicit at
  compile time, which may enable additional optimizations.

To enable these changes, the variables arch_id and model_id defined in
frame/base/bli_arch.c are no longer static, as they must be accessed in multiple
files (i.e. they are now global variables). Rename to g_arch_id and g_model_id
to distinguish from any locally defined arch_id or model_id variables.

f44149f787 Armv8 Trash New Bulk Kernels
- They didn't make much improvements.
- Can't register row-preferral and column-preferral ukrs at the same time.
  Will break 1m.

abc648352c Armv8 Fix 6x8 Row-Maj Ukr
- Fixed for 6x8 only, 4x4 & 4x8 pending;
- Installed to config firestorm as benchmark seems to show better perf:

e38ca28689 Added Apple Firestorm (A14/M1) Subconfig
- Use the same bulk kernel as Cortex-A53 / ThunderX2;
- Larger block size;
- Use gemmsup kernels for double precision.
