Wahoo's release scheme follows the microarchitecture levels.
x86_64-v1 is the slowest but compatible with almost anything.
x86_64-v2 is faster but is compatible with CPUs pre-Haswell/Excavator.
x86_64-v3 is faster still and recommended on modern systems.
x86_64-v4 is the fastest but requires AVX-512 support.
