1. Add a new API -- sbgemv to support bfloat16 based gemv
2. Implement a generic kernel for sbgemv
3. Implement an avx512-bf16 based kernel for sbgemv

This is unlikely to happen in practice, but if it does, the rogue file would get included instead of the dynamically generated version for each target_core, leading to very confusing errors like "invalid operands (undefined UND and ABS sections)" in compilation of the assembly kernels as macros like PREFETCH would remain undefined
1. Added bfloat16 based dot as new API: shdot
2. Implemented generic kernel and cooperlake-specific (AVX512-BF16) kernel for shdot
3. Added 4 conversion APIs for bfloat16 data type <=> single/double: shstobf16 shdtobf16 sbf16tos dbf16tod
shstobf16 -- convert single float array to bfloat16 array
shdtobf16 -- convert double float array to bfloat16 array
sbf16tos -- convert bfloat16 array to single float array
dbf16tod -- convert bfloat16 array to double float array
4. Implemented generic kernels for all 4 conversion APIs, and cooperlake-specific kernel for shstobf16 and shdtobf16
5. Update level1 thread facilitate functions and macros to support multi-threading for these new APIs
6. Fix Cooperlake platform detection/specify issue when under dynamic-arch building
7. Change the typedef of bfloat16 from unsigned short to more strict uint16_t

Enable new build target platform -- COOPERLAKE. This target platform
supports all the SKYLAKEX supported ISAs + avx512bf16. So all the
SKYLAKEX specific kernels/drivers and related code are now extended
to be also active on COOPERLAKE. Besides, new BF16 related kernels
are active under this target.
