We lookup algorithms with crypto_alg_mod_lookup() when instantiating via
crypto_add_alg(). However, algorithms that are wrapped by an IV genearator
(e.g. aead or genicv type algorithms) need special care. The userspace
process hangs until it gets a timeout when we use crypto_alg_mod_lookup()
to lookup these algorithms. So export the lookup functions for these
algorithms and use them in crypto_add_alg().

This patch makes crypto_alloc_aead always return algorithms that is
capable of generating their own IVs through givencrypt and givdecrypt.
All existing AEAD algorithms already do. New ones must either supply
their own or specify a generic IV generator with the geniv field.

This patch creates the infrastructure to help the construction of IV
generator templates that wrap around AEAD algorithms by adding an IV
generator to them. This is useful for AEAD algorithms with no built-in
IV generator or to replace their built-in generator.
