[PATCH 01/13] crypto/crc32: register only one shash_alg

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers at google.com>

Stop unnecessarily registering a "crc32-generic" shash_alg when a
"crc32-$(ARCH)" shash_alg is registered too.

While every algorithm does need to have a generic implementation to
ensure uniformity of support across platforms, that doesn't mean that we
need to make the generic implementation available through crypto_shash
when an optimized implementation is also available.

Registering the generic shash_alg did allow users of the crypto_shash or
crypto_ahash APIs to request the generic implementation specifically,
instead of an optimized one.  However, the only known use case for that
was the differential fuzz tests in crypto/testmgr.c.  Equivalent test
coverage is now provided by crc_kunit.

Besides simplifying crypto/crc32.c, this change eliminates the need for
the library to provide crc32_le_base() as part of its interface.  Later
patches will make crc32_le_base() be internal to the library.
