Add support for SIV (Synthetic IV) mode

This patch add supports for SIV, an AEAD block cipher
mode defined in RFC5297. SIV is only valid for AES.

The PRF of SIV (S2V) is factored out in the Protocol.KDF module.

See the following example to get a feeling of the API (slightly
different than other AEAD mode, during decryption).

Encryption (Python 2):

	>>> from Crypto.Cipher import AES
	>>> key = b'0'*32
	>>> siv = AES.new(key, AES.MODE_SIV)
	>>> ct  = siv.encrypt(b'Message')
	>>> mac = siv.digest()

Decryption (Python 2):

	>>> from Crypto.Cipher import AES, MacMismatchError
	>>> key = b'0'*32
	>>> siv = AES.new(key, AES.MODE_SIV)
	>>> pt  = siv.decrypt(ct + mac)
	>>> try:
	>>>	siv.verify(mac)
	>>>	print "Plaintext", pt
	>>> except MacMismatchError:
	>>>     print "Error"

This change also fixes the description/design of AEAD API.

With SIV (RFC5297), decryption can only start when the MAC is known.
The original AEAD API did not support that.

For SIV the MAC is now exceptionally passed together with the ciphertext
to the decrypt() method.

- [9c13f9c] Rename 'IV' parameter to 'nonce' for AEAD modes.
- [d7727fb] Fix description/design of AEAD API.

- [ca460a7] Made blockalgo.py more PEP-8 compliant;
            The second parameter of the _GHASH constructor
            is now the length of the block (block_size)
            and not the full module.
[dlitz@dlitz.net: A conflict that was not resolved in the previous
