Summary:
Crc32c Parallel computation coding optimization:
Macro unfolding removes the "for" loop and is good to decrease branch-miss in arm64 micro architecture
1024 Bytes is divided into 8(head) + 1008( 6 * 7 * 3 * 8 ) + 8(tail) three parts
Macro unfolding 42 loops to 6 CRC32C7X24BYTESs
1 CRC32C7X24BYTES containing 7 CRC32C24BYTESs

Summary:
Crc32c Parallel computation optimization:
Algorithm comes from Intel whitepaper: [crc-iscsi-polynomial-crc32-instruction-paper](https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/white-papers/crc-iscsi-polynomial-crc32-instruction-paper.pdf)
Input data is divided into three equal-sized blocks
Three parallel blocks (crc0, crc1, crc2) for 1024 Bytes
One Block: 42(BLK_LENGTH) * 8(step length: crc32c_u64) bytes
1. crc32c_test:
```
[==========] Running 4 tests from 1 test case.
[----------] Global test environment set-up.
[----------] 4 tests from CRC
[ RUN ] CRC.StandardResults
[ OK ] CRC.StandardResults (1 ms)
[ RUN ] CRC.Values
[ OK ] CRC.Values (0 ms)
[ RUN ] CRC.Extend
[ OK ] CRC.Extend (0 ms)
[ RUN ] CRC.Mask

```
2. RocksDB benchmark: db_bench --benchmarks="crc32c"
```
Linear Arm crc32c:
crc32c: 1.005 micros/op 995133 ops/sec; 3887.2 MB/s (4096 per op)
```
```
Parallel optimization with Armv8 crypto extension:
crc32c: 0.419 micros/op 2385078 ops/sec; 9316.7 MB/s (4096 per op)
```
It gets ~2.4x speedup compared to linear Arm crc32c instructions.
