Convert the "seqiv" template to the new way of freeing instances where a
->free() method is installed to the instance struct itself. Also remove
the unused implementation of the old way of freeing instances from the
"echainiv" template, since it's already using the new way too.In doing this, also simplify the code by making the helper function
aead_geniv_alloc() install the ->free() method, instead of making seqiv
and echainiv do this themselves. This is analogous to how
skcipher_alloc_instance_simple() works.This will allow removing support for the old way of freeing instances.

Initializing a crypto_aead_spawn currently requires:
1. Set spawn->base.inst to point to the instance.
2. Call crypto_grab_aead().But there's no reason for these steps to be separate, and in fact this
unneeded complication has caused at least one bug, the one fixed by
commit 6db43410179b ("crypto: adiantum - initialize crypto_spawn::inst")So just make crypto_grab_aead() take the instance as an argument.
To keep the function calls from getting too unwieldy due to this extra
argument, also introduce a 'mask' variable into the affected places
which weren't already using one.Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers

If aead is built as a module along with cryptomgr, it creates a
dependency loop due to the dependency chain aead => crypto_null =>
cryptomgr => aead.This is due to the presence of the AEAD geniv code. This code is
not really part of the AEAD API but simply support code for IV
generators such as seqiv. This patch moves the geniv code into
its own module thus breaking the dependency loop.Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu
