DynCpu variants exist on all platforms (#28769)
Pure refactor - no change to codegen. Preparatory step for compiling all of the lexer's code on all platforms (#28772). Previously, `Avx2` only existed on x86_64, and `Neon` only on aarch64, and the variants of `DynCpu` had `#[cfg]` attributes to match. `Generic` existed on all platforms, but was uninhabited on aarch64 with Neon enabled. Make `Avx2` and `Neon` work the same way as `Generic`. All these types now exists on every platform. Each has a private field which is `()` on its own platform, and `Never` (an enum with no variants) everywhere else: ```rust pub struct Avx2( cfg_select! { target_arch = "x86_64" => (), _ => Never, }, ); ``` On platforms which can't support the CPU feature set, the type is uninhabited, so it can never be created, and the compiler removes code which handles it. `DynCpu` has all 3 variants on every platform. Variants which can't exist on a platform are `#[expect(dead_code)]` there. The field is private, so only code in the `cpu` module knows that a type is uninhabited. A `match` anywhere else needs an arm for every variant, including ones which can't exist. So `cpu_select!` and `#[cpu_multiversion]` add arms for them, e.g. `DynCpu::Neon(_) => unreachable!()` on x86_64.

The Oxidation Compiler is a collection of high-performance tools for JavaScript and TypeScript written in Rust.
Oxc is part of VoidZero's vision for a unified, high-performance toolchain for JavaScript. It powers Rolldown (Vite's bundler) and enables the next generation of ultra-fast development tools that work seamlessly together.

🙋 Who's using Oxc?
Rolldown and Nuxt use Oxc for parsing. Rolldown also uses Oxc for transformation and minification. Nova, swc-node, and knip use oxc_resolver for module resolution. Preact, Shopify, ByteDance, and Shopee use oxlint for linting.
