ThunderX1 and ThunderX2 have been retired for a few years now.
So let's remove the thunderx{,2} specific versions of memcpy.
The performance gain or them was for medium and large sizes
while the generic (aarch64) memcpy will handle just slightly worse.

Qualcomm's new core (oryon-1) has a different performance characteristic
than other cores. For memcpy, it is faster to use the GPRs to
do the copy for large sizes (2x faster). For even larger sizes,
it is better to use the nontemporal load/store instructions so
we don't pollute the L1/L2 caches.
For smaller sizes, the characteristic are very similar to
other cores.
I used the thunderx memcpy as a starting point and expanded from there.
Changes since v1:
* v2: Fix ordering in Makefile.
* v3: Fix comment grammar about the ldnp/stnp instructions.

Old Linux kernels disable SVE after every system call. Calling the
SVE-optimized memcpy afterwards will then cause a trap to reenable SVE.
As a result, applications with a high use of syscalls may run slower with
the SVE memcpy. This is true for kernels between 4.15.0 and before 6.2.0,
except for 5.14.0 which was patched. Avoid this by checking the kernel
version and selecting the SVE ifunc on modern kernels.
Parse the kernel version reported by uname() into a 24-bit kernel.major.minor
value without calling any library functions. If uname() is not supported or
if the version format is not recognized, assume the kernel is modern.

These describe generic AArch64 CPU features, and are not tied to a
kernel-specific way of determining them. We can share them between
the Linux and Hurd AArch64 ports.
