Fix pg_crc32c_armv8_choose.c to build with ancient glibc releases.

If you go back as far as the RHEL7 era, <sys/auxv.h> does not provide
the HWCAPxxx macros needed with elf_aux_info or getauxval, so you need
to get those from the kernel header <asm/hwcap.h> instead. We knew
that for the 32-bit case but failed to extrapolate to the 64-bit case.
Oversight in commit aac831caf.
