Use SSE3 in 32-bit x86 binaries

Merged Hannu Hanhi requested to merge Hannu_Hanhi/SRB2:master-use-sse3 into master

Pros:

  • Seems to fix strange issue on AMD processors where the compiled binary has a chance to have 2x slower slope rendering in software mode
  • Improves OpenGL performance on AMD processors
  • Timedemo shows tiny performance increase on Intel Atom N270 on both renderers
  • Timedemo shows tiny performance increase on Intel Core i7-4770HQ on software mode
    • Slopes get 20% faster on this CPU

Cons:

  • CPUs older than 15 years will not run the executable.

The tests were done on the next branch.

CMake changes are untested, I don't have CMake.
