Log:
 Add -mno-avx2 for clang as well as -mno-avx. We don't want either of
 them when asking for no SIMD.

Is this needed.  For SSE, -mno-sse implies -mno-sse[2,3,4,...] so
an multiple set of no-sse* flags are not needed (I have only checked this
for sse2).  Multiple no-sse* flags are also not used.

Nearby example of non-use for SSE.

Testing shows that -mavx2 -mno-avx kills all AVX for clang in an example
that only generates AVX instructions (-mavx2 enabls these as a subset).
