elf: Optimize _dl_new_hash in dl-new-hash.h

Unroll slightly and enforce good instruction scheduling. This improves
performance on out-of-order machines. The unrolling allows for
pipelined multiplies.

As well, as an optional sysdep, reorder the operations and prevent
reassosiation for better scheduling and higher ILP. This commit
only adds the barrier for x86, although it should be either no
change or a win for any architecture.

Unrolling further started to induce slowdowns for sizes [0, 4]
but can help the loop so if larger sizes are the target further
unrolling can be beneficial.
