crypto: arm/xor - make vectorized C code Clang-friendly
The ARM version of the accelerated XOR routines are simply the 8-way C routines passed through the auto-vectorizer with SIMD codegen enabled. This used to require GCC version 4.6 at least, but given that 5.1 is now the baseline, this check is no longer necessary, and actually misidentifies Clang as GCC < 4.6 as Clang defines the GCC major/minor as well, but makes no attempt at doing this in a way that conveys feature parity with a certain version of GCC (which would not be a great idea in the first place). So let's drop the version check, and make the auto-vectorize pragma (which is based on a GCC-specific command line option) GCC-only. Since Clang performs SIMD auto-vectorization by default at -O2, no pragma is necessary here.
