Add SSE2, AVX2 & NEON support to `pygame.print_debug_info()` #2897

These are the most common instruction sets we support paths for and could assist us in detecting bugs. There are more instruction sets listed in system.get_cpu_instuction_sets() but currently we don't make much use of them in pygame-ce.

I don't have a problem with this PR per se, but my opinion is that we should probably have a centralized way to get and set the SIMD level at runtime.

You should open an issue about that. It shouldn't block this PR.

We will get this for free when SDL3 comes out, btw. SDL_HINT_CPU_FEATURE_MASK.
