x86emul: rework compiler probing in the test harness

Checking for what $(SIMD) contains was initially right, but already the
addition of $(FMA) wasn't. Later categories (correctly) weren't added.
Instead what is of interest is anything the main harness source file
uses outside of suitable #if and without resorting to .byte, as that's
the one file (containing actual tests) which has to succeed in building.
The auxiliary binary blobs we utilize may fail to build; the resulting
empty blobs are recognized and reported as "n/a" when the harness is
run.

Note that strictly speaking we'd need to probe the assembler. We assume
that a compiler knowing of a certain ISA extension is backed by an
equally capable assembler.
