crypto: arm/aes - replace scalar AES cipher
This replaces the scalar AES cipher that originates in the OpenSSL project with a new implementation that is ~15% (*) faster (on modern cores), and reuses the lookup tables and the key schedule generation routines from the generic C implementation (which is usually compiled in anyway due to networking and other subsystems depending on it). Note that the bit sliced NEON code for AES still depends on the scalar cipher that this patch replaces, so it is not removed entirely yet. * On Cortex-A57, the performance increases from 17.0 to 14.9 cycles per byte for 128-bit keys.
