Introduced in 1992, the Alpha was a 64-bit RISC processor designed to replace the VAX CISC machines sold by Digital Equipment Corporation. After Digital was acquired by Compaq in 1998 -- who themselves would be later purchased by Hewlett-Packard, the architecture was phased out over the following decade. It became effectively defunct in 2007, the last publicly available processor being the Alpha 21364. FFmpeg has not added any DSP code for this architecture since lowres2 was introduced in 2012, and it is more than unlikely someone still wishes to maintain it. Remove the DSP and support code.
