Instead of exposing the arm-optimized SHA-1 code via arm-specific
crypto_shash algorithms, instead just implement the sha1_blocks()
library function. This is much simpler, it makes the SHA-1 library
functions be arm-optimized, and it fixes the longstanding issue where
the arm-optimized SHA-1 code was disabled by default. SHA-1 still
remains available through crypto_shash, but individual architectures no
longer need to handle it.
To match sha1_blocks(), change the type of the nblocks parameter of the
assembly functions from int to size_t. The assembly functions actually
already treated it as size_t.

Fix poly1305-armv4.pl to not do '.globl poly1305_blocks_neon' when
poly1305_blocks_neon() is not defined. Then, remove the empty __weak
definition of poly1305_blocks_neon(), which was still needed only
because of that unnecessary globl statement. (It also used to be needed
because the compiler could generate calls to it when
CONFIG_KERNEL_MODE_NEON=n, but that has been fixed.)
Thanks to Arnd Bergmann for reporting that the globl statement in the
asm file was still depending on the weak symbol.

Restore the SIMD usability check that was removed by commit 773426f477
("crypto: arm/poly1305 - Add block-only interface").
This safety check is cheap and is well worth eliminating a footgun.
While the Poly1305 functions should not be called when SIMD registers
are unusable, if they are anyway, they should just do the right thing
instead of corrupting random tasks' registers and/or computing incorrect
MACs. Fixing this is also needed for poly1305_kunit to pass.
Just use may_use_simd() instead of the original crypto_simd_usable(),
since poly1305_kunit won't rely on crypto_simd_disabled_for_test.

Consolidate the CPU-based SHA-256 code into a single module, following
what I did with SHA-512:
- Each arch now provides a header file lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/sha256.h,
replacing lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/sha256.c. The header defines
sha256_blocks() and optionally sha256_mod_init_arch(). It is included
by lib/crypto/sha256.c, and thus the code gets built into the single
libsha256 module, with proper inlining and dead code elimination.
- sha256_blocks_generic() is moved from lib/crypto/sha256-generic.c into
lib/crypto/sha256.c. It's now a static function marked with
__maybe_unused, so the compiler automatically eliminates it in any
cases where it's not used.
- Whether arch-optimized SHA-256 is buildable is now controlled
centrally by lib/crypto/Kconfig instead of by
lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/Kconfig. The conditions for enabling it remain
the same as before, and it remains enabled by default.
- Any additional arch-specific translation units for the optimized
SHA-256 code (such as assembly files) are now compiled by
lib/crypto/Makefile instead of lib/crypto/$(SRCARCH)/Makefile.

Instead of having both sha256_blocks_arch() and sha256_blocks_simd(),
instead have just sha256_blocks_arch() which uses the most efficient
implementation that is available in the calling context.
This is simpler, as it reduces the API surface. It's also safer, since
sha256_blocks_arch() just works in all contexts, including contexts
where the FPU/SIMD/vector registers cannot be used. This doesn't mean
that SHA-256 computations *should* be done in such contexts, but rather
we should just do the right thing instead of corrupting a random task's
registers. Eliminating this footgun and simplifying the code is well
worth the very small performance cost of doing the check.
Note: in the case of arm and arm64, what used to be sha256_blocks_arch()
is renamed back to its original name of sha256_block_data_order().
sha256_blocks_arch() is now used for the higher-level dispatch function.
This renaming also required an update to lib/crypto/arm64/sha512.h,
since sha2-armv8.pl is shared by both SHA-256 and SHA-512.

Move the contents of arch/arm/lib/crypto/ into lib/crypto/arm/.
The new code organization makes a lot more sense for how this code
actually works and is developed. In particular, it makes it possible to
build each algorithm as a single module, with better inlining and dead
code elimination. For a more detailed explanation, see the patchset
which did this for the CRC library code:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250607200454.73587-1-ebiggers@kernel.org/.
Also see the patchset which did this for SHA-512:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-crypto/20250616014019.415791-1-ebiggers@kernel.org/
This is just a preparatory commit, which does the move to get the files
into their new location but keeps them building the same way as before.
Later commits will make the actual improvements to the way the
arch-optimized code is integrated for each algorithm.
Add a gitignore entry for the removed directory arch/arm/lib/crypto/ so
that people don't accidentally commit leftover generated files.
