Detect AVX2 - #20

Cool. Although provided that you cannot currently pass a better optimization level larger than -O1 in Python extensions, I am -0 in porting this back to bcolz or python-blosc. I think it is much better that people start using the C-Blosc library directly as stated in:

Fair enough. It is strange but I am not seeing any segfaults with zarr, so
I have not limited the compiler optimisation level in setup.py. I haven't
used heavily yet tho so the same issue may still be there.

No more segfaults? Hmmm, strange... I think they will come again, but I think it is nice that you enable -O2 or higher in zarr just to keep track of this.

FWIW I have never seen segfaults with zarr, only bcolz. The previous
version of zarr only used the blosc contextual functions. The next zarr
release which I'm just preparing will have the option to use either the
contextual functions or the non-contextual functions like bcolz, so
something may come up. I'll try to run some heavier tests and see what
happens.
