arm64/crc32: Implement 4-way interleave using PMULL

Now that kernel mode NEON no longer disables preemption, using FP/SIMD
in library code which is not obviously part of the crypto subsystem is
no longer problematic, as it will no longer incur unexpected latencies.

So accelerate the CRC-32 library code on arm64 to use a 4-way
interleave, using PMULL instructions to implement the folding.

On Apple M2, this results in a speedup of 2 - 2.8x when using input
sizes of 1k - 8k. For smaller sizes, the overhead of preserving and
restoring the FP/SIMD register file may not be worth it, so 1k is used
as a threshold for choosing this code path.

The coefficient tables were generated using code provided by Eric. [0]
