More correct solution.

The previous patch worked, but sha512-p8 wasn't included in the final binary
because USE_PPC_CRYPTO is disabled. sha512-p8 was just built, but not used
earlier. This is why all tests passed.

The problem with it is that the assembly is tailored to little-endian and w=
on't
work on big-endian. However, there is a proper script to generate sha512-p8=
 for
big-endian, both elfv1 and elfv2. There is also a variant for 32-bit powerp=
c.
Ideally, this script should run always, but upstream seems to have forgotten
that and just put the generated sha512-p8 to the source. This patch takes c=
are
of running this script.

Also, since USE_PPC_CRYPTO works on big-endian, put an option to enable tha=
t.
It will use VSX, which is available on POWER8 and newer. I made it availabl=
e on
32 bits as well, just in case someone on VSX-capable machine wants to run
32-bit chroot or jail.
