SECLIB-667: Accelerate SHA-256 with A64 crypto extensions

Provide an additional pair of #defines, MBEDTLS_SHA256_USE_A64_CRYPTO_IF_PRESENT
and MBEDTLS_SHA256_USE_A64_CRYPTO_ONLY. At most one of them may be
specified. If used, it is necessary to compile with -march=armv8-a+crypto.

The MBEDTLS_SHA256_PROCESS_ALT and MBEDTLS_SHA256_ALT mechanisms
continue to work, and are mutually exclusive with A64_CRYPTO.

There should be minimal code size impact if no A64_CRYPTO option is set.

/**
* \def MBEDTLS_SHA256_USE_A64_CRYPTO_IF_PRESENT
*
* Enable acceleration of the SHA-256 cryptographic hash algorithm with the
* Arm A64 cryptographic extensions if they are available at runtime. If not,
* it will fall back to the C implementation.
*
* \note If MBEDTLS_SHA256_USE_A64_CRYPTO_IF_PRESENT is defined when building
* for a non-Aarch64 build it will be silently ignored.
*
* \note The code uses Neon intrinsics, so \c CFLAGS must be set to a minimum
* of \c -march=armv8-a+crypto.
*
* \warning MBEDTLS_SHA256_USE_A64_CRYPTO_IF_PRESENT cannot be defined at the
* same time as MBEDTLS_SHA256_USE_A64_CRYPTO_ONLY.
*
* Requires: MBEDTLS_SHA256_C.
*
* Module: library/sha256.c
*
* Uncomment to have the library check for the A64 SHA-256 crypto extensions
* and use them if available.
