pixman: properly enable/disable ARM optimizations

The pixman ARM optimized code assumes that ARM instructions are
available. Unfortunately, the configure.ac checks do not detect that the
platform is Thumb-only for Cortex-M builds, so it enables the ARM
optimizations, leading to failures like:

error: /home/test/autobuild/run/instance-3/output/host/usr/arm-buildroot-uclinux-uclibcgnueabi/sysroot/usr/lib/libpixman-1.a(pixman-arm-simd-asm-scaled.o): Conflicting CPU architectures 13/1

When building programs linked with pixman on Thumb-only
architectures. This is due to the fact that some object files in
libpixman-1.a are built for the ARM instruction set.

To resolve this, we give better hints to the pixman configure script
about which ARM optimizations to use: the ARM SIMD optimizations need at
least a CPU that supports ARM instructions, and obviously the ARM NEON
optimizations need NEON support.
