xxh32() - fast on both 32/64-bit platforms
xxh64() - fast only on 64-bit platform
Create xxhash() which will pickup fastest version
on compile time.
As result depends on cpu word size,
the main proporse of that - in memory hashing.
Changes:
v2:
- Create that patch
v3 -> v6:
- Nothing, whole patchset version bump
