[cairo] [PATCH] ARM: Remove any use of environment variables for cpu features detection

Old code assumed that all ARMv7 processors support NEON instructions
unless overrided by environment variable ARM_TRUST_HWCAP. This causes
X server to die with SIGILL if NEON support is disabled in the kernel
configuration. Additionally, ARMv7 processors lacking NEON unit are
going to become available eventually.
