get_bits: introduce safe bitreading to prevent overreads.
When turned on, H264/CAVLC gets ~15% (CVPCMNL1_SVA_C.264) slower for ultra-high-bitrate files, or ~2.5% (CVFI1_SVA_C.264) for lower-bitrate files. Other codecs are affected to a lesser extent because they are less optimized; e.g., VC-1 slows down by less than 1% (all on x86). The patch generated 3 extra instructions (cmp, cmovae and mov) per call to get_bits(). The performance penalty on ARM is within the error margin for most files, up to 4% in extreme cases such as CVPCMNL1_SVA_C.264. Based on work (for GCI) by Aneesh Dogra <lionaneesh@gmail.com>, and inspired by patch in Chromium by Chris Evans <cevans@chromium.org>.
