arm: Fall back to runtime cpu feature detection via /proc/cpuinfo

On recent android versions, /proc/self/auxw is unreadable
(unless the process is running running under the shell uid or
in debuggable mode, which makes it hard to notice). See
http://b.android.com/43055 and
https://android-review.googlesource.com/51271 for more information
about the issue.

This makes sure e.g. neon optimizations are enabled at runtime in
android apps even when built in release mode, if configured to
use the runtime detection.
