The accelerated crc32c needs to check for two CPU features, the crc32c
instructions is in SSE 4.2 and 'pclmulqdq' is a separate. There's still
old hardware used that does not have the PCLMUL instructions. Detect it
and make it the condition.
The pclmul is not supported on old compilers so also add a
configure-time detection and leave the SSE 4.2 only implementation as
the accelerated one if possible.

Copy faster implementation of crc32c from linux kernel as of 6.5-rc7
(x86_64, arch/x86/crypto/crc32c-pcl-intel-asm_64.S). This needs
assembler build support, so detect target architecture so
cross-compilation still works.
Add a special CPU flag so the old and new implementations can be
benchmarked and verified separately.

The new implementation is about 2.5x faster.
Note: there new version does not work on musl because of linkage
problems (relocations in .rodata), so it's still using the old
implementation.

The crc32c selection has been already using the pointer-based approach
so drop the cpuid detection and use our common code for that.

There are some stale headers that we don't need and the int types are
using the kernel types and pull kerncompat.h. As this is a basic header
that should minimize dependencies use the standard int types.

Add the GPL v2 header to files where it was missing and is not from an
external source, update to the most recent version with the address.

With the introduction of xxhash64 to btrfs-progs we created a crypto/
directory for all the hashes used in btrfs (although no
cryptographically secure hash is there yet).
Move the crc32c implementation from kernel-lib/ to crypto/ as well so we
have all hashes consolidated.
