Switch __ARM_FEATURE_CRYPTO to __ARM_FEATURE_{AES,SHA2}.
The latest version of ACLE splits __ARM_FEATURE_CRYPTO into two defines
to reflect that, starting ARMv8.2, the cryptography extension can
include {AES,PMULL} and {SHA1,SHA256} separately.
Also standardize on __ARM_NEON, which is the recommended symbol from
ACLE, and the only one defined on non-Apple aarch64 targets. Digging
through GCC history, __ARM_NEON__ is a bit older. __ARM_NEON was added
in GCC's 9e94a7fc5ab770928b9e6a2b74e292d35b4c94da from 2012, part of GCC
4.8.0.
I suspect we can stop paying attention to __ARM_NEON__ at this point,
but I've left both working for now. __ARM_FEATURE_{AES,SHA2} is definite
too new to fully replace __ARM_FEATURE_CRYPTO.
Tested on Linux that -march=armv8-a+aes now also drops the fallback AES
code. Previously, we would pick up -march=armv8-a+crypto, but not
-march=armv8-a+aes. Also tested that, on an OPENSSL_STATIC_ARMCAP build,
-march=armv8-a+sha2 sets the SHA-1 and SHA-256 features.

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.
