David Benjamin 762e1d039c Import chacha-x86.pl fix.
Patch from https://mta.openssl.org/pipermail/openssl-dev/2016-March/005625.html.

Upstream has yet to make a decision on aliasing requirements for their
assembly. If they choose to go with the stricter aliasing requirement rather
than land this patch, we'll probably want to tweak EVP_AEAD's API guarantees
accordingly and then undiverge.

In the meantime, import this to avoid a regression on x86 from when we had
compiler-vectorized code on GCC platforms.  Per our assembly coverage tools and
pending multi-CPU-variant tests, we have good coverage here. Unlike Poly1305
(which is currently waiting on yet another upstream bugfix), where there is
risk of missed carries everywhere, it is much more difficult to accidentally
make a ChaCha20 implementation that fails based on the data passed into it.

This restores a sizeable speed improvement on x86.
