crypto: crc32c - Remove more outdated usage information
Remove information from the crypto/crc32c.c file comment that is no longer applicable now that nearly all users of CRC-32C are simply using the crc32c() library function instead. This continues the cleanup from commit 0ef6eb10f2e0 ("crypto: Clean up help text for CRYPTO_CRC32C").
