libavutils: Add parse_r helper for MIPS

That helper grab from kernel code can allow us to inline
newer instructions (not implemented by the assembler) in
a elegant manner.

+ * parse_r var, r - Helper assembler macro for parsing register names.
+ *
+ * This converts the register name in $n form provided in \r to the
+ * corresponding register number, which is assigned to the variable \var. It is
+ * needed to allow explicit encoding of instructions in inline assembly where
+ * registers are chosen by the compiler in $n form, allowing us to avoid using
+ * fixed register numbers.
+ *
+ * It also allows newer instructions (not implemented by the assembler) to be
+ * transparently implemented using assembler macros, instead of needing separate
+ * cases depending on toolchain support.
+ *
+ * Simple usage example:
+ * __asm__ __volatile__("parse_r __rt, %0\n\t"
+ *                      ".insn\n\t"
+ *                      "# di    %0\n\t"
+ *                      ".word   (0x41606000 | (__rt << 16))"
+ *                      : "=r" (status);
