In https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/10883, I'd meant to exclude
the perlasm drivers since they aren't opening pipes and do not
particularly need it, but I only noticed x86_64-xlate.pl, so
arm-xlate.pl and ppc-xlate.pl got the change.
That seems to have been fine, so be consistent and also apply the change
to x86_64-xlate.pl. Checking for errors is generally a good idea.

If one of the perlasm xlate drivers crashes, OpenSSL's build will
currently swallow the error and silently truncate the output to however
far the driver got. This will hopefully fail to build, but better to
check such things.
Handle this by checking for errors when closing STDOUT (which is a pipe
to the xlate driver).

They now generally conform to the following argument sequence:
script.pl "$(PERLASM_SCHEME)" [ C preprocessor arguments ... ] \
$(PROCESSOR) <output file>
However, in the spirit of being able to use these scripts manually,
they also allow for no argument, or for only the flavour, or for only
the output file. This is done by only using the last argument as
output file if it's a file (it has an extension), and only using the
first argument as flavour if it isn't a file (it doesn't have an
extension).
While we're at it, we make all $xlate calls the same, i.e. the $output
argument is always quoted, and we always die on error when trying to
start $xlate.
There's a perl lesson in this, regarding operator priority...
This will always succeed, even when it fails:
open FOO, "something" || die "ERR: $!";
The reason is that '||' has higher priority than list operators (a
function is essentially a list operator and gobbles up everything
following it that isn't lower priority), and since a non-empty string
is always true, so that ends up being exactly the same as:
open FOO, "something";
This, however, will fail if "something" can't be opened:
open FOO, "something" or die "ERR: $!";
The reason is that 'or' has lower priority that list operators,
i.e. it's performed after the 'open' call.

It's kind of a "brown-bag" bug, as I did recognize the problem and
verified an ad-hoc solution, but failed to follow up with cross-checks
prior filing previous merge request.

This comes at cost of minor 2.5% regression on G4, which is reasonable
trade-off. [Further improve compliance with ABI requirements.]

As it turns out originally published results were skewed by "turbo"
mode. VM apparently remains oblivious to dynamic frequency scaling,
and reports that processor operates at "base" frequency at all times.
While actual frequency gets increased under load.

The prevailing style seems to not have trailing whitespace, but a few
lines do. This is mostly in the perlasm files, but a few C files got
them after the reformat. This is the result of:
find . -name '*.pl' | xargs sed -E -i '' -e 's/( |'$'\t'')*$//'
find . -name '*.c' | xargs sed -E -i '' -e 's/( |'$'\t'')*$//'
find . -name '*.h' | xargs sed -E -i '' -e 's/( |'$'\t'')*$//'
Then bn_prime.h was excluded since this is a generated file.
Note mkerr.pl has some changes in a heredoc for some help output, but
other lines there lack trailing whitespace too.
