Introduce the parity() macro, which selects the appropriate parity
function (parity8(), parity16(), parity32(), or parity64()) based on
the size of the input type. This improves usability by allowing a
generic parity calculation without requiring explicit function
selection.

If the input type does not match the supported sizes, BUILD_BUG() is
triggered to catch invalid usage at compile time.
