The current implementation is underperforming and in addition, it
triggers misaligned access traps on platforms which do not handle
misaligned accesses in hardware.

Use the existing assembly routines to solve both problems at once.

<title>crypto: lib/chacha - add array bounds to function prototypes</title>

Add explicit array bounds to the function prototypes for the parameters
that didn't already get handled by the conversion to use chacha_state:

- chacha_block_*():
  Change 'u8 *out' or 'u8 *stream' to u8 out[CHACHA_BLOCK_SIZE].

- hchacha_block_*():
  Change 'u32 *out' or 'u32 *stream' to u32 out[HCHACHA_OUT_WORDS].

- chacha_init():
  Change 'const u32 *key' to 'const u32 key[CHACHA_KEY_WORDS]'.
  Change 'const u8 *iv' to 'const u8 iv[CHACHA_IV_SIZE]'.

No functional changes.  This just makes it clear when fixed-size arrays
are expected.

<title>crypto: lib/chacha - strongly type the ChaCha state</title>

The ChaCha state matrix is 16 32-bit words.  Currently it is represented
in the code as a raw u32 array, or even just a pointer to u32.  This
weak typing is error-prone.  Instead, introduce struct chacha_state:

    struct chacha_state {
            u32 x[16];
    };

Convert all ChaCha and HChaCha functions to use struct chacha_state.
No functional changes.

<content type='text'>
This reverts commit c4741b23059794bd99beef0f700103b0d983b3fd.

Crypto API self-tests no longer run at registration time and now
occur either at late_initcall or upon the first use.

Therefore the premise of the above commit no longer exists.  Revert
it and subsequent additions of subsys_initcall and arch_initcall.

Note that lib/crypto calls will stay at subsys_initcall (or rather
downgraded from arch_initcall) because they may need to occur
before Crypto API registration.

<title>crypto: riscv/sha256 - implement library instead of shash</title>

<content type='text'>
Instead of providing crypto_shash algorithms for the arch-optimized
SHA-256 code, instead implement the SHA-256 library.  This is much
simpler, it makes the SHA-256 library functions be arch-optimized, and
it fixes the longstanding issue where the arch-optimized SHA-256 was
disabled by default.  SHA-256 still remains available through
crypto_shash, but individual architectures no longer need to handle it.

To match sha256_blocks_arch(), change the type of the nblocks parameter
of the assembly function from int to size_t.  The assembly function
actually already treated it as size_t.

<title>crypto: lib/chacha - remove INTERNAL symbol and selection of CRYPTO</title>

Now that the architecture-optimized ChaCha kconfig symbols are defined
regardless of CRYPTO, there is no need for CRYPTO_LIB_CHACHA to select
CRYPTO.  So, remove that.  This makes the indirection through the
CRYPTO_LIB_CHACHA_INTERNAL symbol unnecessary, so get rid of that and
just use CRYPTO_LIB_CHACHA directly.  Finally, make the fallback to the
generic implementation use a default value instead of a select; this
makes it consistent with how the arch-optimized code gets enabled and
also with how CRYPTO_LIB_BLAKE2S_GENERIC gets enabled.
