Introduce optimized routine for linear searches of arrays
Use SSE2 intrinsics to speed up the search, where available. Otherwise,
use a simple 'for' loop. The motivation to add this now is to speed up
XidInMVCCSnapshot(), which is the reason only unsigned 32-bit integer
arrays are optimized. Other types are left for future work, as is the
extension of this technique to non-x86 platforms.
