Upstream Rust always requires SSE2 for x86. But back in 2017[^1][^2] we
patched lang/rust to disable SSE2 for i386. At the time, it was
reported that some people were still using non-SSE2 capable hardware.
More recently, LLVM bugs have been discovered[^3][^4] that can result in
rounding bugs and reduced accuracy when using f64 on non-SSE hardware.
In weird cases, they can even cause wilder unpredictable behavior, like
segfaults.
Revert our change for the sake of Pentium 4 (and later) users. But add
an SSE2 option. Disabling it will allow the port to be used on Pentium
3 and older CPUs.
