crypto: Kconfig - simplify cipher entries

Browse source 
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.

Block ciphers: AES cipher algorithms (FIPS-197)
Length-preseving ciphers: AES with ECB, CBC, and CTR modes
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
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.

Camellia cipher algorithm module (SPARC64).
Block ciphers: Camellia cipher algorithms
Length-preserving ciphers: Camellia with ECB and CBC modes
Camellia is a symmetric key block cipher developed jointly
at NTT and Mitsubishi Electric Corporation.
The Camellia specifies three key sizes: 128, 192 and 256 bits.
