crypto: cast6-avx - tune assembler code for more performance
Patch replaces 'movb' instructions with 'movzbl' to break false register
dependencies, interleaves instructions better for out-of-order scheduling
and merges constant 16-bit rotation with round-key variable rotation.

[v2]
- Do instruction interleaving another way to avoid adding new FPU<=>CPU
register moves as these cause performance drop on Bulldozer.
- Improvements to round-key variable rotation handling.
- Further interleaving improvements for better out-of-order scheduling.
