We already have a LICENSE file that covers the Zig Standard Library. We
no longer need to remind everyone that the license is MIT in every single
file.
Previously this was introduced to clarify the situation for a fork of
Zig that made Zig's LICENSE file harder to find, and replaced it with
their own license that required annual payments to their company.
However that fork now appears to be dead. So there is no need to
reinforce the copyright notice in every single file.

Master branch added `try` to a bunch of testing function calls, and some
lines also had changed how to refer to the native architecture and other
`@import("builtin")` stuff.
This is a trivial implementation that just does a or[xor] loop.
However, this pattern is used by virtually all crypto libraries and
in practice, even without assembly barriers, LLVM never turns it into
code with conditional jumps, even if one of the parameters is constant.
This has been verified to still be the case with LLVM 11.0.0.
- use `PascalCase` for all types. So, AES256GCM is now Aes256Gcm.
- consistently use `_length` instead of mixing `_size` and `_length` for the
constants we expose
- Use `minimum_key_length` when it represents an actual minimum length.
Otherwise, use `key_length`.
- Require output buffers (for ciphertexts, macs, hashes) to be of the right
size, not at least of that size in some functions, and the exact size elsewhere.
- Use a `_bits` suffix instead of `_length` when a size is represented as a
number of bits to avoid confusion.
- Functions returning a constant-sized slice are now defined as a slice instead
of a pointer + a runtime assertion. This is the case for most hash functions.
- Use `camelCase` for all functions instead of `snake_case`.
No functional changes, but these are breaking API changes.
Performance increases from ~400 MiB/s to 450 MiB/s at the expense of
extra code. Thus, aggregation is disabled on ReleaseSmall.
Since the multiplication cost is significant compared to the reduction,
aggregating more than 2 blocks is probably not worth it.
