Move "direct SGEMM" functionality out of the SkylakeX SGEMM kernel and make it available
(on x86_64 targets only for now) in DYNAMIC_ARCH builds
* Add sgemm_direct targets in the kernel Makefile.L3 and CMakeLists.txt
* Add direct_sgemm functions to the gotoblas struct in common_param.h
* Move sgemm_direct_performant helper to separate file
* Update gemm.c to macros for sgemm_direct to support dynamic_arch naming via common_s,h
* (Conditionally) add sgemm_direct functions in setparam-ref.c
Enable new build target platform -- COOPERLAKE. This target platform
supports all the SKYLAKEX supported ISAs + avx512bf16. So all the
SKYLAKEX specific kernels/drivers and related code are now extended
to be also active on COOPERLAKE. Besides, new BF16 related kernels
are active under this target.
* Add dedicated POWER9 build (using new syntax to ensure it runs as a P9-only containerized job rather than a VM that
might end up on P8 hardware half of the time)
* Bump gcc version for POWER9 build
We recently changed the register blocking for SGEMM on s390x to 16x4.
However, we did not adjust Q to a multiple of 16 and thus fell back to
the 8x4 kernel at each block's margin, without need. Adjust P and Q to
multiples of 16 to employ the faster 16x4 kernel for complete full-sized
blocks.

For small register blockings that are too small to fill up vector
registers with column vectors, we currently use a generic code block.
Replace that with instantiations of the generic code as individual
functions, so that the compiler can optimize each one separately.

Improve performance of SGEMM and DGEMM on z14 and z15 by unrolling and
interleaving the inner loop of the SGEMM 16x4 and DGEMM 8x4 blocks.
Specifically, we explicitly interleave vector register loads and
computation of two iterations.
Note that this change only adds one C function, since SGEMM 16x4 and
DGEMM 8x4 actually map to the same C code: they both hold intermediate
results in a 4x4 grid of vector registers, and the C implementation is
built around that.
