crypto: Kconfig - simplify cipher entries
Shorten menu titles and make them consistent: - acronym - name - architecture features in parenthesis - no suffixes like "<something> algorithm", "support", or "hardware acceleration", or "optimized" Simplify help text descriptions, update references, and ensure that https references are still valid.

- Use SPARC64 crypto opcodes for AES algorithm.

- AES cipher algorithms (FIPS-197). AES uses the Rijndael
- algorithm.
-
- Rijndael appears to be consistently a very good performer in
- both hardware and software across a wide range of computing
- environments regardless of its use in feedback or non-feedback
- modes. Its key setup time is excellent, and its key agility is
- good. Rijndael's very low memory requirements make it very well
- suited for restricted-space environments, in which it also
- demonstrates excellent performance. Rijndael's operations are
- among the easiest to defend against power and timing attacks.

- The AES specifies three key sizes: 128, 192 and 256 bits

+ Length-preseving ciphers: AES with ECB, CBC, and CTR modes
- See <http://csrc.nist.gov/encryption/aes/> for more information.
-
- In addition to AES cipher algorithm support, the acceleration
- for some popular block cipher mode is supported too, including
- ECB and CBC.
