Implement ChaCha20-Poly1305 Crypto Primitive
Adds encrypt/decrypt with ChaCha20-Poly1305.
ChaCha20-Poly1305, CCM, and GCM are all AEAD based, so I've refactored the encrypt/decrypt logic into a generic
aeadimplementation.Also refactors all the common code in all the benchmark tests into helper functions
benchmarkEncryptandbenchmarkDecryptThe refactor also includes using buffer-pools for nonces for all of the ciphers... which comes with some nice side effects. Performance is neutral to slightly better for the refactored cipher implementations (CCM and GCM), and memory allocations per operation are reduced:
CCM:
GCM:
Note that the new ChaCha20-Poly1305 crypto primitive is currently unused. Next PR will add full cipher suite implementations (TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256, etc...) which will make use of this code.
