md5/md4: enable unaligned access fast path on powerpc64

Browse source 
PowerPC64 (both big-endian and little-endian) supports efficient
unaligned memory access, similar to x86. This extends the existing
fast path that avoids byte-by-byte loads in the MD5 and MD4 SET/GET
macros.

On POWER8 ppc64le, this eliminates 3 shifts + 3 ORs per 32-bit word
load, replacing them with a single lwz (or lwbrx on big-endian).
