It was meant to build a single binary optimized
for any kind of CPU: with and without hardware POPCNT.
This is a nice idea but in practice was never used, or
people builds binary with popcnt enabled or not, mainly
according to their type of CPU. And it was also never
used in the official Jim's builds where, in case, would
be easier for a number of reasons, do build two different
versions: with and without SEE42 support.
So retire this feature and simplify the code.

It is simple but somewhat tricky code that deserves
a bit of documentation. A bit of renaming while there.

To avoid nasty bugs due to silently overriding of
common operator we enable the templates on a type
by type base using partial template specialization.

Note that in value we leave two specialized functions
to allow adding an integer, we don't want to add this
as a template becasue we want to control implicit
conversions to integer of an enum.

This is tricky because there are some special
binary fnctions with SquareDelta that we should
leave as they are.
Also note that we needed to add Unary minus template
to fix a comile error in SERIALIZE_MOVES_D macro that was
triggered because now we don't allow conversion to int.

Also don't use __cpuid() intrinsic for Intel under

use the gcc version instead. Finally clean up the code.
