With bsaes-x86_64.pl gone, it is no longer needed. Depending on how armv7 works
(if vpaes-armv7.pl is too slow AND on-demand vpaes->bsaes key conversion is not
viable), we may need to bring it back, but get it out of the way for now.

RAND_bytes rarely uses large enough inputs for bsaes to be worth it.
https://boringssl-review.googlesource.com/c/boringssl/+/33589 includes some
rough benchmarks of various bits here. Some observations:
- 8 blocks of bsaes costs roughly 6.5 blocks of vpaes. Note the comparison
isn't quite accurate because I'm measuring bsaes_ctr32_encrypt_blocks against
vpaes_encrypt and vpaes in CTR mode today must make do with a C loop. Even
assuming a cutoff of 6 rather than 7 blocks, it's rare to ask for 96 bytes
of entropy at a time.
- CTR-DRBG performs some stray block operations (ctr_drbg_update), which bsaes
is bad at without extra work to fold them into the CTR loop (not really worth
it).
- CTR-DRBG calculates a couple new key schedules every RAND_bytes call. We
don't currently have a constant-time bsaes key schedule. Unfortunately, even
plain vpaes loses to the current aes_nohw used by bsaes, but it's not
constant-time. Also taking CTR-DRBG out of the bsaes equation
- Machines without AES hardware (clients) are not going to be RNG-bound. It's
mostly servers pushing way too many CBC IVs that care. This means bsaes's
current side channel tradeoffs make even less sense here.
I'm not sure yet what we should do for the rest of the bsaes mess, but it seems
clear that we want to stick with vpaes for the RNG.

The change seems to have stuck, so bring us closer to C/++11 static asserts.
(If we later find we need to support worse toolchains, we can always use
__LINE__ or __COUNTER__ to avoid duplicate typedef names and just punt on
embedding the message into the type name.)

The original comment was a little confusing. Also lowercase
CTR_DRBG_update to make our usual naming for static functions.

crypto/{asn1,x509,x509v3,pem} were skipped as they are still OpenSSL
style.

Support for platforms that we don't support FIPS on doesn't need to be
in the module. Also, functions for dealing with whether fork-unsafe
buffering is enabled are left out because they aren't implementing any
cryptography and they use global r/w state, making their inclusion
painful.
