Wouldn't it make more sense to make crc32-generic actually be the generic
implementation, and add crc32-arm64 and crc32-riscv?  Likewise for crc32c.  That
is the usual way that the algorithms get wired up.

Even if we take a shortcut and don't do that, the naming could at least be more
consistent, e.g. rename the existing crc32-generic to crc32-lib and add
crc32-generic alongside that.
