Decrease the amount of code specific to the different AES variants by "right-aligning" the sequence of round keys, and for AES-128 and AES-192 just skipping irrelevant rounds at the beginning. This shrinks the size of aes-xts-avx-x86_64.o by 13.3%, and it improves the efficiency of AES-128 and AES-192. The tradeoff is that for AES-256 some additional not-taken conditional jumps are now executed. But these are predicted well and are cheap on x86. Note that the ARMv8 CE based AES-XTS implementation uses a similar strategy to handle the different AES variants.
