crypto: chacha20-generic - refactor to allow varying number of rounds



In preparation for adding XChaCha12 support, rename/refactor
chacha20-generic to support different numbers of rounds.  The
justification for needing XChaCha12 support is explained in more detail
in the patch "crypto: chacha - add XChaCha12 support".

The only difference between ChaCha{8,12,20} are the number of rounds
itself; all other parts of the algorithm are the same.  Therefore,
remove the "20" from all definitions, structures, functions, files, etc.
that will be shared by all ChaCha versions.

Also make ->setkey() store the round count in the chacha_ctx (previously
chacha20_ctx).  The generic code then passes the round count through to
chacha_block().  There will be a ->setkey() function for each explicitly
allowed round count; the encrypt/decrypt functions will be the same.  I
decided not to do it the opposite way (same ->setkey() function for all
round counts, with different encrypt/decrypt functions) because that
would have required more boilerplate code in architecture-specific
implementations of ChaCha and XChaCha.
