LibTomCrypt v1.14 out

Been a while since an update..

changelog:
v1.14 -- Renamed the chaining mode macros from XXX to LTC_XXX_MODE.
Should help avoid polluting the macro name space.

-- clean up of SHA-256

-- Chris Colman pointed out that der_decode_sequence_* allows
LTC_ASN1_SETOF to accept SEQUENCEs and vice versa.
Decoder [non-flexi decoder that is] is more strict now and
requires a match.

-- Steffen Jaeckel pointed out a typo in the user manual (re:
rsa_exptmod). Fixed. This disproves the notion that
nobody reads it. :-)

-- Made GCM a bit more portable w.r.t. handling the CTR IV (e.g.
& with 255)

-- Add LTC_VERBOSE if you really want to see what test is doing
:-)

-- Added SSE2 support to GCM [use GCM_TABLES_SSE2 to enable],
shaves 2 cycles per byte on Opteron processors
Shaved 4 cycles on a Prescott (Intel P4)
Requires you align your gcm_state on a 16 byte boundary, see
gcm_memory() for more info

-- Added missing prototype for f8_test_mode()

-- two fixes to CCM for corner cases [L+noncelen > 15] and fixing
the CTR pad to encrypt the CBC-MAC tag

-- Franz Glasner pointed out the ARGTYPE=4 is not actually valid.
Fixed.

-- Fixed bug in f8_start() if your key < saltkey unspecified
behaviour occurs. :-(

-- Documented F8 mode. Yeah, because you read the manual.

-- Minor updates to the technotes.
