As described in the second part of https://ejrh.wordpress.com/2011/10/13/mandelbrot-calculation-using-simd/

Don't forget to rebenchmark it.

Done in r115.

This significantly speeds up 64-bit float (double-precision) SIMD, but only very
slightly speeds up 32-bit float SIMD.  I speculate that that may be because at
any one moment it's more likely that at least one of the slots will be expired
or outside the boundary, so the optimisation is less useful as a whole.
