YV12->RV32 should be possible with very minimal extra code.

Depending on bottlenecks in the NEON register bank and in your brain you could 
probably increase the performance by leveraging NEON dual issue. It seems the 
current assembler code does not make any effort at using the ALU and the 
load/store NEON units simultaneously.

Anyway, this can be merged as is and improved later.
