[CELT-dev] Modifications of kiss_fft/compatibility with original kiss_fft code?

It's more than just a reorganization of the code/data. The original 
fixed-point kiss-fft supported either 16-bit precision or 32-bit 
precision. Instead, the modified version we use in CELT uses 32-bit data 
with 16-bit twiddles.
