Use google/benchmark for performance tracking

In this patch we would vendor google/benchmark and break down the
benchmark into individual translation units, so that the benchmark
framework can apply filters on which benchmark code to run.

This patch vendors google/benchmark 1.9.4

Source: https://github.com/google/benchmark
Commit: eddb0241389718a23a42db6af5f0164b6e0139af

How to run the benchmark:

Benchmarks need to be built by passing in `-DBUILD_TESTING=ON` to CMake,
which is set by default.
To invoke the benchmarks, execute the `bssl_bench` binary.

You have the option to enumerate all of the benchmarks first by passing in
`--benchmark_list_tests`.
To run specific benchmarks, you may pass in `--benchmark_filter=$regex` where
`$regex` is an [`ECMAScript regular expression`](https://cppreference.com/w/cpp/regex/ecmascript.html).

You can specify a set of input sizes in bytes for relevant cipher suites
with the repeatable flag `-i` or `--input-size`.
You can let the benchmark run with a set of various thread counts with the
repeatable flag `-t` or `--threads`.
For more benchmark configuration options, you may read the manual by passing
in `--help` flag on launch.

BoringSSL

BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.

Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.

Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.

BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.

Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.

To file a security issue, use the Chromium process and mention in the report this is for BoringSSL. You can ignore the parts of the process that are specific to Chromium/Chrome.
