ggml : alternative Q4_3 implementation using modified Q8_0 (#1109)

* ggml : prefer vzip to vuzp

This way we always use the same type of instruction across all quantizations

* ggml : alternative Q4_3 implementation using modified Q8_0

* ggml : fix Q4_3 scalar imlpementation

* ggml : slight improvement of Q4_3 - no need for loop unrolling

* ggml : fix AVX paths for Q8_0 quantization
