[v2,8/9] x86emul/test: engage AVX512VL via command line option

Commit Message

Now that we have machinery in testcase.mk to set vector length dependent
flags for AVX512 tests, let's avoid using a pragma to enable AVX512VL
insns for the compiler. This way, correct settings are in place from the
very beginning of compilation.

No change to the generated test blobs, and hence no functional change.
