crypto: Kconfig - simplify hash entries
Shorten menu titles and make them consistent: - acronym - name - architecture features in parenthesis - no suffixes like "<something> algorithm", "support", or "hardware acceleration", or "optimized" Simplify help text descriptions, update references, and ensure that https references are still valid.

Use an implementation of GHASH (used by the GCM AEAD chaining mode)

that is part of the ARMv8 Crypto Extensions, or a slower variant that
uses the vmull.p8 instruction that is part of the basic NEON ISA.
