[PATCH] Replace AES implementation from hostapd with the one from Nettle library.

This is merely a historical archive of years 2008-2021, before the migration to mailman3.

The replaced code is licensed as GPLv2 only unlike the rest of libosmocore which is
GPLv2+
The replacement is adopted from Nettle cryptographic library:
http://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/nettle/

All the files are taken as is with exception of aes-internal.h which was
significantly reduced.

Of course personally I would prefer just to link to Nettle but during the discussing
over irc and ML there's been strong voices against introducing extra dependencies.
