Replace CBC_MAC_ROTATE_IN_PLACE with an N lg N rotation.
Really the only thing we should be doing with these ciphers is hastening
their demise, but it was the weekend and this seemed like fun.
EVP_tls_cbc_copy_mac needs to rotate a buffer by a secret amount. (It
extracts the MAC, but rotated.) We have two codepaths for this. If
CBC_MAC_ROTATE_IN_PLACE is defined (always on), we make some assumptions
abuot cache lines, play games with volatile, and hope that doesn't leak
anything. Otherwise, we do O(N^2) work to constant-time select the
rotation incidences.
But we can do O(N lg N). Rotate by powers of two and constant-time
select by the offset's bit positions. (Handwaivy lower-bound: an array
position has N possible values, so, armed with only a constant-time
select, we need O(lg N) work to resolve it. There's N array positions,
so O(N lg N).)
A microbenchmark of EVP_tls_cbc_copy_mac shows this is 27% faster than
the old one, but still 32% slower than the in-place version.
in-place:
Did 15724000 CopyFromMAC operations in 20000744us (786170.8 ops/sec)
N^2:
Did 8443000 CopyFromMAC operations in 20001582us (422116.6 ops/sec)
N lg N:
Did 10718000 CopyFromMAC operations in 20000763us (535879.6 ops/sec)
This results in the following the CBC ciphers. I measured
AES-128-CBC-SHA1 and AES-256-CBC-SHA384 which are, respectively, the
cipher where the other bits are the fastest and the cipher where N is
largest.

TLS CBC performance isn't as important as it was before, and the costs
aren't that high, so avoid making assumptions about cache lines. (If we
care much about CBC open performance, we probably should get the malloc
out of EVP_tls_cbc_digest_record at the end.)
