  Description     : ARM neon (SIMD) library

 Ne10 is a library of the most commonly used functions that have been
 heavily optimized for ARM-based CPUs with NEON (ARM's SIMD
 instructions). These functions provide consistent, well tested
 behavior for use in applications without having to write assembly.
 Ne10 is usable as a shared or static library.
 .
 Both 32 and 64-bit variants are supported. (ARM v7, 32-bit, armhf, and
 ARM v8, 64-bit, aarch64/arm64)
 

I'm packaging this because someone pointed out that it wasn't
available in debian, but would be useful. That seemed a reasonable
point, and I'm in a packaging frame of mind at the moment, so I thought
I could fix that fairly easily.

This library does only support Arm, but optimised SIMD code is
fundamentally arch-specific. I am not aare of a general SIMD library
that supplies functions like this as altivec, neon, SSE etc, as
appropriate for the arch for multiple arches, although obviously such
a thing would be nice. In the absence of such a thing ne10 seems
likely to be useful to some developers.
