asm-generic: Improve csum_fold

This csum_fold implementation introduced into arch/arc by Vineet Gupta
is better than the default implementation on at least arc, x86, and
riscv. Using GCC trunk and compiling non-inlined version, this
implementation has 41.6667%, 25% fewer instructions on riscv64, x86-64
respectively with -O3 optimization. Most implmentations override this
default in asm, but this should be more performant than all of those
other implementations except for arm which has barrel shifting and
sparc32 which has a carry flag.
