Nathan Bossart eb9ab7e093 Remove uses of popcount builtins.
This commit replaces the implementations of pg_popcount{32,64} with
branchless ones in plain C.  While these new implementations do not
make use of more sophisticated population count instructions
available on some CPUs, testing indicates they perform well,
especially now that they are inlined.  Newer versions of popular
compilers will automatically replace these with special
instructions if possible, anyway.  A follow-up commit will replace
various loops over these functions with calls to pg_popcount(),
leaving us little reason to worry about micro-optimizing them
further.

Since this commit removes the only uses of the popcount builtins,
we can also remove the corresponding configuration checks.
