Both Clang's Static Analyzer and Synopsys' Coverity would ignore
assertions. Following Clang's advice, we annotate our assertions:
https://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/annotations.html#custom_assertions
This makes both Clang's Static Analyzer and Coverity properly identify
assertions. This change reduced Clang's reported defects from 246 to
180. It also reduced the false positives reported by Coverityi by 10,
while enabling Coverity to find 9 more defects that previously were
false negatives.
A couple examples of this would be CID-1524417 and CID-1524423. After
submitting a build to coverity with the modified assertions, CID-1524417
disappeared while the report for CID-1524423 no longer claimed that the
assertion tripped.
Coincidentally, it turns out that it is possible to more accurately
annotate our headers than the Coverity modelling file permits in the
case of format strings. Since we can do that and this patch annotates
headers whenever `__coverity_panic__()` would have been used in the
model file, we drop all models that use `__coverity_panic__()` from the
model file.
Upon seeing the success in eliminating false positives involving
assertions, it occurred to me that we could also modify our headers to
eliminate coverity's false positives involving byte swaps. We now have
coverity specific byteswap macros, that do nothing, to disable
Coverity's false positives when we do byte swaps. This allowed us to
also drop the byteswap definitions from the model file.
Lastly, a model file update has been done beyond the mentioned
deletions:
* The definitions of `umem_alloc_aligned()`, `umem_alloc()` andi
`umem_zalloc()` were originally implemented in a way that was
intended to inform coverity that when KM_SLEEP has been passed these
functions, they do not return NULL. A small error in how this was
done was found, so we correct it.
* Definitions for umem_cache_alloc() and umem_cache_free() have been
added.
In practice, no false positives were avoided by making these changes,
but in the interest of correctness from future coverity builds, we make
them anyway.

This change updates the documentation to refer to the project
as OpenZFS instead ZFS on Linux. Web links have been updated
to refer to https://github.com/openzfs/zfs. The extraneous
zfsonlinux.org web links in the ZED and SPL sources have been
dropped.

FreeBSD defines _BIG_ENDIAN BIG_ENDIAN _LITTLE_ENDIAN
LITTLE_ENDIAN on every architecture. Trying to do
cross builds whilst hiding this from ZFS has proven
extremely cumbersome.

Closes#10621
Move platform specific Linux headers under include/os/linux/.
Update the build system accordingly to detect the platform.
This lays some of the initial groundwork to supporting building
for other platforms.
As part of this change it was necessary to create both a user
and kernel space sys/simd.h header which can be included in
either context. No functional change, the source has been
refactored and the relevant #include's updated.
