Add support for AES-CTR and AES-XCTR to the crypto library.
These will be used to provide streamlined implementations of the
"ctr(aes)" and "xctr(aes)" crypto_skcipher algorithms. Most users of
"ctr(aes)" will also be able to switch to the library, which as usual
will be simpler and faster, e.g.:
- net/mac80211/fils_aead.c
- net/mac802154/llsec.c
As usual, the architecture-optimized AES-CTR and AES-XCTR code will be
migrated into the library as well (using the hooks provided in this
commit), eliminating lots of repetitive boilerplate code.
This is also a prerequisite for supporting AES-GCM, AES-CCM, and
AES-HCTR2 in the crypto library.
Initial test coverage is provided by the crypto_skcipher support added
in a later commit. I'm planning a KUnit test suite as well.
