SM4 optimization for ARM by HW instruction

This patch implements the SM4 optimization for ARM processor,
using SM4 HW instruction, which is an optional feature of
crypto extension for aarch64 V8.

Tested on some modern ARM micro-architectures with SM4 support, the
performance uplift can be observed around 8X~40X over existing
C implementation in openssl. Algorithms that can be parallelized
(like CTR, ECB, CBC decryption) are on higher end, with algorithm
like CBC encryption on lower end (due to inter-block dependency)

Perf data on Yitian-710 2.75GHz hardware, before and after optimization:
