I suggest that we remove the '-arch:SSE' added on Windows, i.e. that we
require at least SSE2-capable systems.
This was added by 8bd6bf93b7 in 2014, but at this point there's basically
nobody who would be running LO but wouldn't be capable of SSE2.
Some relevant facts:
- GCC, Clang and MSVC all default to SSE2+
- The last Windows to work without at least SSE2 was Windows 7, which is EOL
(and in fact it in practice required SSE2+ too, since an update in 2018).
- Windows 8, MSOffice 2013, Chromium require SSE2+.
- I checked all ~240k crash dumps reported in the last month and there's not a
single one from a machine not capable of SSE2.
