4545503926 Add a constant-time pshufb-based GHASH implementation.
We currently require clmul instructions for constant-time GHASH
on x86_64. Otherwise, it falls back to a variable-time 4-bit table
implementation. However, a significant proportion of clients lack these
instructions.

Inspired by vpaes, we can use pshufb and a slightly different order of
incorporating the bits to make a constant-time GHASH. This requires
SSSE3, which is very common. Benchmarking old machines we had on hand,
it appears to be a no-op on Sandy Bridge and a small slowdown for
Penryn.

Sandy Bridge (Intel Pentium CPU 987 @ 1.50GHz):
(Note: these numbers are before 16-byte-aligning the table. That was an
improvement on Penryn, so it's possible Sandy Bridge is now better.)
