Daniel P. Berrange 84f7f180b0 crypto: import an implementation of the XTS cipher mode
The XTS (XEX with tweaked-codebook and ciphertext stealing)
cipher mode is commonly used in full disk encryption. There
is unfortunately no implementation of it in either libgcrypt
or nettle, so we need to provide our own.

The libtomcrypt project provides a repository of crypto
algorithms under a choice of either "public domain" or
the "what the fuck public license".

So this impl is taken from the libtomcrypt GIT repo and
adapted to be compatible with the way we need to call
ciphers provided by nettle/gcrypt.
