Thanks.  I think we should patch these by moving the " (label
mysql-fast)" and the like into FORMAT_NAME.

Will be:

MySQL (label mysql-fast)

> Benchmarking: MySQL [32/32 (label mysql)]... DONE

MySQL (label mysql)

> Benchmarking: NT MD4 [128/128 SSE2 + 32/32]... DONE

NT MD4 (label nt)

> Benchmarking: NT MD4 [128/128 SSE2 intrinsics 12x]... DONE

NT MD4 (label nt2)

> Benchmarking: Raw SHA-1 [128/128 SSE2 intrinsics 8x]... DONE

Raw SHA-1 (label raw-sha1)

> Benchmarking: Raw SHA-1 [128/128 SSE2 intrinsics 4x]... DONE

Raw SHA-1 (label raw-sha1-ng)

In fact, should we possibly unify these label names - e.g., consistently
use the "-ng" suffix on the newer and faster implementations?

For MySQL, is there any reason to keep the non-fast implementation in
the tree at all?  If not, then let's move it to unused/ and rename
mysql-fast to just mysql (and not mention the label then).
