Now that all users of the deprecated ablkcipher interface have been
moved to the skcipher interface, ablkcipher is no longer used and
can be removed.

Now that all "blkcipher" algorithms have been converted to "skcipher",
remove the blkcipher algorithm type.

The skcipher (symmetric key cipher) algorithm type was introduced a few
years ago to replace both blkcipher and ablkcipher (synchronous and
asynchronous block cipher).  The advantages of skcipher include:

  - A much less confusing name, since none of these algorithm types have
    ever actually been for raw block ciphers, but rather for all
    length-preserving encryption modes including block cipher modes of
    operation, stream ciphers, and other length-preserving modes.

  - It unified blkcipher and ablkcipher into a single algorithm type
    which supports both synchronous and asynchronous implementations.
    Note, blkcipher already operated only on scatterlists, so the fact
    that skcipher does too isn't a regression in functionality.

  - Better type safety by using struct skcipher_alg, struct
    crypto_skcipher, etc. instead of crypto_alg, crypto_tfm, etc.

  - It sometimes simplifies the implementations of algorithms.

Also, the blkcipher API was no longer being tested.

crypto_has_ablkcipher() has no users, and it does the same thing as
crypto_has_skcipher() anyway.  So remove it.  This also removes the last
user of crypto_skcipher_type() and crypto_skcipher_mask(), so remove
those too.

CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_WEAK_KEY confuses newcomers to the crypto API because it
sounds like it is requesting a weak key.  Actually, it is requesting
that weak keys be forbidden (for algorithms that have the notion of
"weak keys"; currently only DES and XTS do).

Also it is only one letter away from CRYPTO_TFM_RES_WEAK_KEY, with which
it can be easily confused.  (This in fact happened in the UX500 driver,
though just in some debugging messages.)

Therefore, make the intent clear by renaming it to
CRYPTO_TFM_REQ_FORBID_WEAK_KEYS.

Remove dead code related to internal IV generators, which are no longer
used since they've been replaced with the "seqiv" and "echainiv"
templates.  The removed code includes:

- The "givcipher" (GIVCIPHER) algorithm type.  No algorithms are
  registered with this type anymore, so it's unneeded.

- The "const char *geniv" member of aead_alg, ablkcipher_alg, and
  blkcipher_alg.  A few algorithms still set this, but it isn't used
  anymore except to show via /proc/crypto and CRYPTO_MSG_GETALG.
  Just hardcode "&lt;default&gt;" or "&lt;none&gt;" in those cases.

- The 'skcipher_givcrypt_request' structure, which is never used.
