Enable upstream's Poly1305 code.

The C implementation is still our existing C implementation, but slightly
tweaked to fit with upstream's init/block/emits convention.

I've tested this by looking at code coverage in kcachegrind and

  valgrind --tool=callgrind --dump-instr=yes --collect-jumps=yes

(NB: valgrind 3.11.0 is needed for AVX2. And even that only does 64-bit AVX2,
so we can't get coverage for the 32-bit code yet. But I had to disable that
anyway.)

This was paired with a hacked up version of poly1305_test that would repeat
tests with different ia32cap and armcap values. This isn't checked in, but we
badly need a story for testing all the different variants.

I'm not happy with upstream's code in either the C/asm boundary or how it
dispatches between different versions, but just debugging the code has been a
significant time investment. I'd hoped to extract the SIMD parts and do the
rest in C, but I think we need to focus on testing first (and use that to
guide what modifications would help). For now, this version seems to work at
least.

The x86 (not x86_64) AVX2 code needs to be disabled because it's broken. It
also seems pretty unnecessary.

Otherwise it seems to work and buys us a decent performance improvement.
Notably, my Nexus 6P is finally faster at ChaCha20-Poly1305 than my Nexus 4!
