Add CRC32C code to mysys. The x86-64 implementation uses PCMULQDQ in addition to CRC32 instruction
after Intel whitepaper, and is ported from rocksdb code.
Optimized ARM and POWER CRC32 were already present in mysys.
Raspberry Pi 4 supports crc32 but doesn't support pmull (MDEV-23030).
The PR #1645 offers a solution to fix this issue. But it does not consider
the condition that the target platform does support crc32 but not support PMULL.
In this condition, it should leverage the Arm64 crc32 instruction (__crc32c) and
just only skip parallel computation (pmull/vmull) rather than skip all hardware
crc32 instruction of computation.
The PR also removes unnecessary CRC32_ZERO branch in 'crc32c_aarch64' for MariaDB,
formats the indent and coding style.

MariaDB adopted a hardware optimized crc32c approach on ARM64 starting 10.5.
Said implementation of crc32c needs support from target hardware for crc32
and pmull instructions. Existing logic is checking only for crc32 support
from target hardware through a runtime check and so if target hardware
doesn't support pmull it would cause things to fail/crash.
Expanded runtime check to ensure pmull support is also checked on the target
hardware along with existing crc32.
Thanks to Marko and Daniel for review.
Existing implementation used my_checksum (from mysys)
for calculating table checksum and binlog checksum.
This implementation was optimized for powerpc only and lacked
SIMD implementation for x86 (using clmul) and ARM
(using ACLE) instead used zlib-crc32.
mariabackup had its own copy of the crc32 implementation
using hardware optimized implementation only for x86 and lagged
hardware based implementation for powerpc and ARM.
Patch helps unifies all such calls and help aggregate all of them
using an unified interface my_checksum().
Said unification also enables hardware optimized calls for all
architecture viz. x86, ARM, POWERPC.
Default always fallback to zlib crc32.
Thanks to Daniel Black for reviewing, fixing and testing
PowerPC changes. Thanks to Marko and Daniel for early code feedback.
