crypto: testmgr - add panic_on_fail module parameter
Add a module parameter cryptomgr.panic_on_fail which causes the kernel to panic if any crypto self-tests fail. Use cases: - More easily detect crypto self-test failures by boot testing, e.g. on KernelCI. - Get a bug report if syzkaller manages to use the template system to instantiate an algorithm that fails its self-tests. The command-line option "fips=1" already does this, but it also makes other changes not wanted for general testing, such as disabling "unapproved" algorithms. panic_on_fail just does what it says.
