feat(cli): implement CPUID-based SHA-NI detection for hash operations

Add hardware-accelerated hash detection:
- Implement hasShaNi() using CPUID inline assembly for x86_64
- Detect SHA-NI support (bit 29 of EBX in leaf 7, subleaf 0)
- Cross-platform fallback for non-x86_64 architectures
- Enables hardware-accelerated SHA-256 when available

Improves hashing performance on modern Intel/AMD CPUs.
