[CRYPTO] api: Add crypto_inc and crypto_xor

With the addition of more stream ciphers we need to curb the proliferation
of ad-hoc xor functions.  This patch creates a generic pair of functions,
crypto_inc and crypto_xor which does big-endian increment and exclusive or,
respectively.

For optimum performance, they both use u32 operations so alignment must be
as that of u32 even though the arguments are of type u8 *.
