Add SIMD metadata in /proc on Linux

Description

Add SIMD metadata in /proc on Linux

Too many times, people's performance problems have amounted to
"somehow your SIMD support isn't working", and determining that
at runtime is difficult to describe to people.

This adds a /proc/spl/kstat/zfs/simd node, which exposes
metadata about which instructions ZFS thinks it can use,
on AArch64 and x86_64 Linux, to make investigating things
like this much easier.
