Convert alg_test_aead() to use the new test framework, using the same list of testvec_configs that skcipher testing uses. This significantly improves AEAD test coverage mainly because previously there was only very limited test coverage of the possible data layouts. Now the data layouts to test are listed in one place for all algorithms and optionally are also randomly generated. In fact, only one AEAD algorithm (AES-GCM) even had a chunked test case before. This already found bugs in all the AEGIS and MORUS implementations, the x86 AES-GCM implementation, and the arm64 AES-CCM implementation. I removed the AEAD chunked test vectors that were the same as non-chunked ones, but left the ones that were unique. Note: the rewritten test code allocates an aead_request just once per algorithm rather than once per encryption/decryption, but some AEAD algorithms incorrectly change the tfm pointer in the request. It's nontrivial to fix these, so to move forward I'm temporarily working around it by resetting the tfm pointer. But they'll need to be fixed.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
