armfazh 144d924e0b Fix EVP_tls_cbc_digest_record is slow using SHA-384 and short messages
Symptom: When using larger hash functions and short messages,
these six blocks take too much time to be conditionally copied.

Observations:
 - SHA-384 consumes more data per iteration, unlike SHA-256.
 - The value of `kVarianceBlocks` must depend on the parameters
   of the selected hash algorithm.
 - Avoid magic constants.

Changes:
 - A new formula for the kVarianceBlocks value.
 - Stronger test vectors were created in change: 32724.
 - The new formula passes these tests.

Discussion:
 OpenSSL team: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/7342
 Quoting mattcaswell:
> The "real" data that needs to be hashed has to be padded for the
> hashing algorithm. For SHA1 the smallest amount of padding that
> can be added is the "0x80" byte plus 8 bytes containing the message
> length, i.e. 9 bytes. If the data length is within 9 bytes of the
> end of the hash block boundary then the padding will push it into
> an extra block to be hashed.

BoringSSL

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.
