Woohoo! This is done all nice and clean now! :) (Can you tell I'm proud?)

src/X86/Makefile.am now includes a rule for building gen_matypes, one for
generating matypes.h through it, as well as the dependency on matypes.h.
Means: everything is done automagically once it is needed.

Unfortunately the configure script depended on matypes.h in the checks for
MMX etc. :o.

I built small checks for all the assembler features in m4/assembler.m4 using
just one instruction of the particular command set each. On my system this
reports all command sets as available. However assembly is not my focus, so
someone more comfortable with all that migh want to double-check the test
cases.
