This makes decoding significantly faster on M1; measured on compressed source
code, decompressing 294 MB to 1301 MB takes 513 ms (2.53 GB/s) before, and
406 ms (3.2 GB/s) after this change on M1 Pro.
There's no way to check if the target architecture is M1 specifically but the
gains are likely to be similar on recent iterations of Apple processors, and
the original performance issue was probably more specific to Qualcomm.
