Currently, if a client of crypto/tls (e.g., net/http, http2) calls
tls.Conn.Write with a 33KB buffer, that ends up writing three TLS
records: 16KB, 16KB, and 1KB. Slow clients (such as 2G phones) must
download the first 16KB record before they can decrypt the first byte.
To improve latency, it's better to send smaller TLS records. However,
sending smaller records adds overhead (more overhead bytes and more
crypto calls), which slightly hurts throughput.
A simple heuristic, implemented in this change, is to send small
records for new connections, then boost to large records after the
first 1MB has been written on the connection.

With this in place, a TLS server is capable of selecting the correct
certificate based on the client's ServerNameIndication extension.
The need to call Config.BuildNameToCertificate is unfortunate, but
adding a sync.Once to the Config structure made it uncopyable and I
felt that was too high a price to pay. Parsing the leaf certificates
in each handshake was too inefficient to consider.

This is largely based on ality's CL 2747042.
crypto/rc4: API break in order to conform to crypto/cipher's
Stream interface
cipher/cipher: promote to the default build
Since CBC differs between TLS 1.0 and 1.1, we downgrade and
support only 1.0 at the current time. 1.0 is what most of the
world uses.
Given this CL, it would be trival to add support for AES 256,
SHA 256 etc, but I haven't in order to keep the change smaller.
