Add optional support for AEGIS encryption
AEGIS is a new family of authenticated encryption algorithms that offers
stronger security, higher usage limits, and better performance than AES-GCM.
This pull request adds support for a new `-aegis` command-line flag, allowing
AEGIS-128X2 to be used as an alternative to AES-GCM on CPUs with AES acceleration.
It also introduces the ability to use ciphers with different key sizes.
More information on AEGIS is available here:
