missing libmad optimization, diff included

[Ingmar Gebert]

In fact I did measure the performance -- it shaves around 7% off the cpu hit. 
Yes, that's on a low spec machine (Pentium 200 MMX) and probably negligable on 
today's machines. But the way I see it: the knob doesn't hurt anybody, as the 
default behaviour is kept, and the user gets more options.

Also, the mpglib alternative doesn't help as the software I'm using (musicpd) 
links to libmad.
