arm/crypto: Add optimized AES and SHA1 routines
Add assembler versions of AES and SHA1 for ARM platforms. This has provided up to a 50% improvement in IPsec/TCP throughout for tunnels using AES128/SHA1.

610 AES cipher algorithms (FIPS-197). AES uses the Rijndael
611 algorithm.
612
613 Rijndael appears to be consistently a very good performer in
614 both hardware and software across a wide range of computing
615 environments regardless of its use in feedback or non-feedback
616 modes. Its key setup time is excellent, and its key agility is
617 good. Rijndael's very low memory requirements make it very well
618 suited for restricted-space environments, in which it also
619 demonstrates excellent performance. Rijndael's operations are
620 among the easiest to defend against power and timing attacks.
621
622 The AES specifies three key sizes: 128, 192 and 256 bits
