- Developed new AVX512 DGEMV kernels for Zen4/5 architectures and
AVX2 kernels for Zen1/2/3 architectures. These kernels are written
from the ground up and are independent of fused kernels.
- The DGEMV primary kernel processes the calculation in chunks of
8 columns. Fringe columns (sizes 1 to 7) are handled by fringe
kernels, which are invoked by the primary kernel as needed.
- Implemented the kernels by computing the dot product of matrix A
columns with vector x in chunks of 32 elements, storing the results
in accumulator registers. Fringe elements are handled in chunks
of 16, 8, etc. The data in the accumulator registers is then reduced
and added to vector y.

- AVX512 specific DGEMV native kernels are added for Zen4/5
architectures to handle the NO_TRANSPOSE cases and are independent of
the AXPYF fused kernels.
- The following set of kernels biased towards the n-dimension perform
beta scaling of y vector within the kernel itself and handle cases
where n is less than 5:
- bli_dgemv_n_zen_int_32x8n_avx512( ... )
- bli_dgemv_n_zen_int_32x4n_avx512( ... )
- bli_dgemv_n_zen_int_32x2n_avx512( ... )
- bli_dgemv_n_zen_int_32x1n_avx512( ... )
- The bli_dgemv_n_zen_int_16mx8_avx512( ... ) is biased towards the
m-dimension and for this kernel beta scaling is handled beforehand
within the framework.
- Added unit-tests for the new kernels.
- AVX2 path for Zen/2/3 architectures still follows the old approach of
using fused kernel, namely AXPYF, to perform the GEMV operation.

- Delete unused cmake files.
- Add guards around call to bli_cpuid_is_avx2fma3_supported
in frame/3/bli_l3_sup.c, currently assumes that non-x86
platforms will not use bli_gemmtsup.
- Correct variable in frame/base/bli_arch.c on non-x86
builds.
- Add guards around omp pragma to avoid possible gcc
compiler warning in kernels/zen/2/bli_gemv_zen_int_4.c.
- Add missing registers in clobber list in
kernels/zen4/1/bli_dotv_zen_int_avx512.c.
- Add gtestsuite ERS_IIT tests for TRMV, copied from TRSV.
- Correct calls to cblas_{c,z}swap in gtestsuite.

- Added reference kernel for dgemv that handles computation for tiny
sizes (m < 8 && n < 8).
- The reference kernel, bli_dgemv_zen_ref( ... ), supports both
row/column storage schemes as well as transpose and no transpose
cases.
- Added additional unit-tests for functional verification.

Defining BLIS_IS_BUILDING_LIBRARY if BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON for the object libraries created in kernels/ directory.
The macro definition was not propagated from high level CMake, so we need to define explicitly for the object libraries.

- Previously, this flag was set as a default at the high-level CMakeLists.txt which means that this flag is used to build everything,all files and all subdirectories, including ref_kernels and testsuite. Also, all files as target sources for this project and compiled with the same flags.
- Now, we create object files using the source in kernels/ directory and add to the object files the AVX2 flag explicitly. So, now only those files will have this flag and it should not be used to compile ref_kernels, etc.
- This is a quick solution to enable runs on non-AVX2 machines.

One has been added.

HPL script was using BLIS manual way to set threading, i.e. setting
BLIS_IC_NT explicitly. This causes bli_rntm_num_threads() to return
-1, which wasn't trapped in parallelised BLAS1 and BLAS2 routines.
Fix: if this occurs, set local number of threads based on product of
BLIS_JC_NT * BLIS_PC_NT * BLIS_IC_NT * BLIS_JR_NT * BLIS_IR_NT values.
Note: BLIS_PC_NT should always be 1, but this environment variable
is currently being read (contrary to documentation), so include it
for now.
Other changes:
* implement _Pragma convention in all code used on AMD
* frame/2/gemv/bli_gemv_unf_var1_amd.c: Remove is_omp_mt_enabled flag

- While calculating the diagonal and corner elements, the combined
operation of calculating the product of x and x hermitian and
simultaneously scaling it with alpha and adding the result to the matrix
was the cause of increased underflow and overflow errors in netlib
tests.
- So the above calculation is now being done in three steps: scaling x
vector with alpha, then calculating its product with x hermitian and
later adding the final result to the matrix.

- Implemented optimized her framework calls for double precision complex numbers.
- The zher kernel operates over 4 columns at a time. Initially, it computes the diagonal elements of the matrix, then the 4x4 triangular part is computed and finally the remaining part is computed as 4x4 tiles of the matrix upto m rows.

All AMD specific optimization in BLIS are enclosed in BLIS_CONFIG_EPYC
pre-preprocessor, this was not defined in CMake which are resulting in
overall lower performance.
Updated version number to 3.1.1

- Impplemented her2 framework calls for transposed and non
transposed kernel variants.
- dher2 kernel operate over 4 columns at a time. It computes
4x4 triangular part of matrix first and remainder part is
computed in chunk of 4x4 tile upto m rows.
- remainder cases(m < 4) are handled serially.

Details:
- Introduced a new macro 'BLIS_CONFIG_EPYC' to enable blas and cblas
framework optimizations for zen family configurations.
- The macro needs to be defined in family.h files of respective arch
configs.
- Moved zen2-specific optimized kernels to zen folder, in order to be
accessible to all zen family architectures.
