Issue: On extremely new hardware using either IceLake or super sets of 
Intel IceLakes avx512 instructions, commit 
d4cd8830bdac3e26c8e75cd92e574c159fecc4f7 causes build issues. 
Specifically a NASM macro expansion of qpel_filter_v is never properly 
defined/initialized.

The issue is the definition was erroneously placed inside a conditional 
which will not trigger unless the original definition failed (has to do 
with if PIC is defined, becomes a bit of a catch 22)
Specifically the error is

X86ASM    libavcodec/x86/hevc_mc.o
libavcodec/x86/hevc_mc.asm:1854: error: symbol `.. at 88472.table' not defined
libavcodec/x86/hevc_mc.asm:1806: ... from macro 
`HEVC_PUT_HEVC_QPEL_HV_AVX512ICL' defined here
libavcodec/x86/hevc_mc.asm:1730: ... from macro `QPEL_FILTER_V' defined here
...
repeats a few times...
...
make: *** [ffbuild/common.mak:100: libavcodec/x86/hevc_mc.o] Error 1
```
Specific error was discussed by kurosu and myself (fclc) on the 
ffmpeg-devel irc.

This commit fixes the above by swapping lines 1796 and 1795, moving the 
define out of the conditional

Side note: It seems fate didn't pick up on this, may merit looking into 
(as mentioned by nevcairiel).
