[v3,02/16] bitops: Add parity16(), parity32(), and parity64() helpers

Commit Message

Add parity16(), parity32(), and parity64() to compute the parity of
16-bit, 32-bit, and 64-bit values, respectively. Each function extends
parity8() by XOR-ing upper and lower halves, reducing the input size
progressively.
