Enable upstream's ChaCha20 assembly for x86 and ARM (32- and 64-bit).

This removes chacha_vec_arm.S and chacha_vec.c in favor of unifying on
upstream's code. Upstream's is faster and this cuts down on the number of
distinct codepaths. Our old scheme also didn't give vectorized code on
Windows or aarch64.

BoringSSL-specific modifications made to the assembly:

- As usual, the shelling out to $CC is replaced with hardcoding $avx. I've
  tested up to the AVX2 codepath, so enable it all.

- I've removed the AMD XOP code as I have not tested it.

- As usual, the ARM file need the arm_arch.h include tweaked.

Speed numbers follow. We can hope for further wins on these benchmarks after
importing the Poly1305 assembly.

(Note we didn't have aarch64 assembly before at all, and still don't have it
for Poly1305. Hopefully once that's added this will be faster than the arm
numbers...)

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.
