Some CPUs report "illegal instruction" error for the crc test because
they do not support the relevant optional feature . This can be fixed by
introducing CPU feature detection for AArch64 .
The difference with the x86 implementation is the dispatcher . It is based
on the glibc function `getauxval(AT_HWCAP)` and `getauxval(AT_HWCAP2)` , not
registers or instructions .
On a heterogeneous system (big.LITTLE) , it is dangerous to detect CPU
features using identification registers . And while it is possible to use
architectural feature registers from userspace on recent kernels, this
won't necessarily work with older platforms . Thus we use the HW_CAPs
exported from the kernel (and visible in getauxval) as the solution.
- According to kernel suggestion , getauxval should be used for this purpose .

- According to AAPCS result/paramter registers should be saved/restore for function call

Some arm64 machines don't support pmull instructions, so set these
crc interface to base functions. For long-term solution, will
provide better multi-binary support with cpu features detection.

Reason: Ceph directly copied some code from isal,
which will have conflict on the condition that
SPDK applications use isal-lib(configured with '--with-isal')
and also use Ceph (configured with --with-rbd)

Merge crc32_gzip_refl function definitions, base code, multi-binary
code into crc32.h, crc32_base,c and crc_multibinary.asm in order to
keep consistency. Add crc32_gzip_refl files into crc/Makefile.am
Original crc32_gzip_refl removed NOT operation, re-add it.

1. Add normal and reflected bits order functions for ISO format and
Jones coefficients format.
2. Add a multi-binary macro for crc64 functions.
3. In order to decrease number of repeated test.c and perf.c files,
using crc64_funcs_test.c and cr crc64_funcs_perf.c.
4. Add crc64_example.c to take the demonstration role.

crc64_ecma_norm is used for the normal format.
crc64_ecma_refl is used for the refleced format.

Allows configure to again build in an external directory. When building ISAL in
an external path, assembler or compiler needs relative include paths.
