1. New LPGEMM type - S8S8S32/S8 is added.
2. New interface, frame and kernel files are added.
3. Frame and kernel files added/modified for S8S8S32/S8 have
2 operations - Pack B and Mat Mul
4. Pack B kernel routines to pack B matrix for VNNI and compute the sum
of every column of B matrix to implement the S8S8S32 operation using
the VNNI instructions.
5. Mat Mul Kernel files to compute the GEMM output using the VNNI.
Here the A matrix elements are converted from int8 to uint8 (VNNI
works with A matrix type uint8 only).
6. Post GEMM computation, additional operations are performed on the
accumulated outputs to get the correct results.
7. With this change, two new LPGEMM APIs are introduced in LPGEMM -
s8s8s32os32 and s8s8s32os8.
8. All previously added post-ops are supported on S8S8S32/S8 also.

1. Correcting the type of alpha, and beta values from C_type
(output type) to accumulation type.
For the downscaled LPGEMM APIs, C_type will be the downscaled
type but the required type for alpha and beta values should
be the accumulation type.
2. BF16 bench integration with the LPGEMM bench for both the BF16
(bf16bf16f32of32 and bf16bf16f32obf16) APIs

-The bf16 gemm framework is modified to swap input column major matrices
and compute gemm for the transposed matrices (now row major) using the
existing row-major kernels. The output is written to C matrix assuming
it is transposed.
-Framework changes to support leading dimensions that are greater than
matrix widths.
-Bench changes to test low precision gemm for column major inputs.

- Downscaling is used when GEMM output is accumulated at a higher
precision and needs to be converted to a lower precision afterwards.
This is required in AI workloads where quantization/dequantization
routines are used.
- New GEMM APIs are introduced specifically to support this use case.
Currently downscaling support is added for s32, s16 and bfloat16 GEMM.

Feature Addition: Added a new variant of low precision GEMM to addon - BFloat16. The kernel takes bf16 type inputs and perform BF16 GEMM operations. The intermediate accumulation and output are in float.
1. Compute kernels will perform computations only if B matrix is reordered in accordance with the usage of AVX-512 BF16 instruction - dpbf16_ps
2. Kernel for packing B matrix is provided

-The micro-kernel function signatures follow a common pattern. These
functions can be represented as an instantiation of a MACRO as is done
in BLIS, and thus the number of micro-kernel header files can be brought
down. A new single header file containing all the MACRO definitions with
the instantiation is added, and the existing unnecessary header files
are removed.
-The bias addition in micro-kernel for n remaining < 16 reads the bias
array assuming it contains 16 elements. This can result in seg-faults,
since out of bound memory is accessed. It is fixed by copying required
elements to an intermediate buffer and using that buffer for loading.
-Input matrix storage type parameter is added to lpgemm APIs. It can be
either row or column major, denoted by r and c respectively. Currently
only row major input matrices are supported.
-Bug fix in s16 fringe micro-kernel to use correct offset while storing
output.
