While the old name is explicit and aligned with the RFC, it's also very long,
so with the mbedtls_ prefix prepended we get a 31-char prefix to each
identifier, which quickly conflicts with our 80-column policy.
The new name is shorter, it's what a lot of people use when speaking about
that construction anyway, and hopefully should not introduce confusion at
it seems unlikely that variants other than 20/1305 be standardised in the
foreseeable future.
- in .h files: only put the context declaration inside the #ifdef _ALT
(this was changed in 2.9.0, ie after the original PR)
- in .c file: only leave selftest out of _ALT: even though some function are
trivial to build from other parts, alt implementors might want to go another
way about them (for efficiency or other reasons)
This change permits users of the ChaCha20/Poly1305 algorithms
(and the AEAD construction thereof) to pass NULL pointers for
data that they do not need, and avoids the need to provide a valid
buffer for data that is not used.
This implementation is based off the description in RFC 7539.
The ChaCha20 code is also updated to provide a means of generating
keystream blocks with arbitrary counter values. This is used to
generated the one-time Poly1305 key in the AEAD construction.
