The return value of xxh64_update() is pointless and confusing, since an
error is only returned for input==NULL.  But the callers must ignore
this error because they might pass input=NULL, length=0.

Likewise for xxh32_update().

Just make these functions return void.

lib/xxhash.c doesn't actually have a maintainer, but probably it makes
sense to take this through the crypto tree, alongside the other patch I
sent to return void in lib/crypto/sha256.c.
