Summary:
IndexPQ and IndexIVFPQ implementations with AVX shuffle instructions.
The training and computing of the codes does not change wrt. the original PQ versions but the code layout is "packed" so that it can be used efficiently by the SIMD computation kernels.
The main changes are:
- new IndexPQFastScan and IndexIVFPQFastScan objects
- simdib.h for an abstraction above the AVX2 intrinsics
- BlockInvertedLists for invlists that are 32-byte aligned and where codes are not sequential
- pq4_fast_scan.h/.cpp: for packing codes and look-up tables + optmized distance comptuation kernels
- simd_result_hander.h: SIMD version of result collection in heaps / reservoirs
Misc changes:
- added contrib.inspect_tools to access fields in C++ objects
- moved .h and .cpp code for inverted lists to an invlists/ subdirectory, and made a .h/.cpp for InvertedListsIOHook
- added a new inverted lists type with 32-byte aligned codes (for consumption by SIMD)
- moved Windows-specific intrinsics to platfrom_macros.h

Changelog:
- changed license: BSD+Patents -> MIT
- propagates exceptions raised in sub-indexes of IndexShards and IndexReplicas
- support for searching several inverted lists in parallel (parallel_mode != 0)
- better support for PQ codes where nbit != 8 or 16
- IVFSpectralHash implementation: spectral hash codes inside an IVF
- 6-bit per component scalar quantizer (4 and 8 bit were already supported)
- combinations of inverted lists: HStackInvertedLists and VStackInvertedLists
- configurable number of threads for OnDiskInvertedLists prefetching (including 0=no prefetch)
- more test and demo code compatible with Python 3 (print with parentheses)
- refactored benchmark code: data loading is now in a single file
* moved most FAISS_ASSERT calls to C++ exceptions, and adjusted
memory allocation to avoid mem leaks
* added an IndexIVFScalarQuantizer type that offers an
intermediate compression between IVFFlat and IVFPQ
* support removal of indices in IndexIDMap / IndexFlat combination
* various fixes in GPU code
