- apply simpler approach than LLVM for __popcountdi2
taken from The Art of Computer Programming and generalized
- rename popcountdi2.zig to popcount.zig
- test cases derived from popcountdi2_test.zig

We already have a LICENSE file that covers the Zig Standard Library. We
no longer need to remind everyone that the license is MIT in every single
file.
Previously this was introduced to clarify the situation for a fork of
Zig that made Zig's LICENSE file harder to find, and replaced it with
their own license that required annual payments to their company.
However that fork now appears to be dead. So there is no need to
reinforce the copyright notice in every single file.
