[PATCH 2/6] lib/bitrev: Introduce GENERIC_BITREVERSE and cleanup Kconfig

[Yury Norov <ynorov@nvidia.com>]

From: Jinjie Ruan <ruanjinjie@huawei.com>

Currently, the bit reversal lookup table is controlled by
!HAVE_ARCH_BITREVERSE. This makes it difficult for architectures to
provide a hardware-accelerated implementation while still falling
back to the generic table for specific configurations.

Introduce CONFIG_GENERIC_BITREVERSE to explicitly manage the generic
lookup table implementation. By using 'def_bool !HAVE_ARCH_BITREVERSE'
with a dependency on 'BITREVERSE', we ensure that:

1. The table is only compiled when needed.
2. The .config is not polluted with useless options when BITREVERSE
   is disabled.
3. Avoids bloating the .data section for architectures that have
   full hardware bit-reverse support and don't need the table.

Update lib/bitrev.c to use CONFIG_GENERIC_BITREVERSE instead of
checking the absence of HAVE_ARCH_BITREVERSE. This provides a
cleaner interface for architectures like RISC-V that may want to
selectively use the generic implementation as a fallback.
