Use __builtin_clz instead of default implementation of fixnormz on GCC
The library contains architecture specific versions of the clz functions for arm and mips, but the fallback C version for other architectures is pretty slow. By using __builtin_clz on GCC (available since GCC 3.4), we get a significant (20-40 %) speedup of the total running time on x86. Speed difference: 5.1 s instead of 8.6 s for AAC-LC 128 kbit/s and 3.8 s instead of 4.9 s for HE-AACv2 32 kbit/s, on an i7.
