jpolo1224 eb54f9b75a Build: four release variants, and what the new one needed ...

Splits the Android release into legacy / a11 / a13 / a15 so a device can take a
build matched to its CPU and OS instead of one binary suiting everything.
android/build-variants.sh drives all four from a single table of
(ndk, api, -march, apk suffix), and ConfigureCompiler.cmake takes -march per
variant rather than hardcoding one.

The legacy variant had never been compiled before: every release up to 0.7.2
was built at the gradle default of minSdk 33, so nothing had ever targeted a
lower API. Doing so turned up std::aligned_alloc, which is API 28+ -- below
that <cstdlib> does not declare it at all and the using-declaration fails to
resolve. posix_memalign is the older spelling and its result frees with plain
free(), so the rest of the header is unaffected. Kept even though legacy now
targets API 30, because it costs nothing and the next person to try a lower
floor should not rediscover it.

legacy targets armv8.1-a, which is the floor this codebase compiles at rather
than a preference: util/simd.hpp uses SQRDMLAH (v8.1 RDMA) and util/asm.hpp
has inline LSE atomics, so armv8-a does not build. Its value is cores that are
ARMv8.2 without the OPTIONAL fp16 and dotprod extensions the other three
variants require. Cortex-A53/A72/A73 class parts stay out of reach until those
two paths gain fallbacks.
