Currently csum_partial() calls csum_copy() with copy=false and dst=NULL.
On machines without the vector facility, csum_copy() falls back to
cksm(dst, ...), causing the checksum to be calculated from address zero
instead of the source buffer.
The VX implementation already checksums data loaded from src. Make the
fallback do the same by passing src to cksm().

With csum_partial(), which reads all bytes into registers it is easy to
also implement csum_partial_copy_nocheck() which copies the buffer while
calculating its checksum.
For a 512 byte buffer this reduces the runtime by 19%. Compared to the old
generic variant (memcpy() + cksm instruction) runtime is reduced by 42%).

Provide a faster variant of csum_partial() which uses vector registers
instead of the cksm instruction.
