//! SIMD-accelerated cryptographic operations
//!
//! This module provides SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data) optimized implementations
//! of common cryptographic operations for improved performance on modern CPUs.
//!
//! # Features
//!
//! - **Parallel XOR**: SIMD-accelerated XOR operations for stream ciphers and key mixing
//! - **Constant-time equality**: SIMD-accelerated constant-time comparisons
//! - **Memory operations**: Fast memory copying and zeroization
//! - **Parallel hashing**: Multi-threaded hash computation for large data
//!
//! # Platform Support
//!
//! This module automatically detects CPU features and uses the best available
//! SIMD instructions (AVX2, SSE2, NEON) or falls back to scalar operations.
