factor: disable x86_64 assembly code for x32 builds
The current x86_64 asm code does not work for x32 (__ILP32__) ABIs,
so disable it. Note simply deleting the q suffix is not enough.
* src/longlong.h: Restrict x86_64 assembly to _LP64 targets,
which is consistent with other checks in longlong.h and
avoids this code on x32.
* NEWS: Mention the build fix.
