crypto: Kconfig - simplify userspace entries 



Shorten menu titles and make them consistent:
- acronym
- name
- architecture features in parenthesis
- no suffixes like "<something> algorithm", "support", or
  "hardware acceleration", or "optimized"

Simplify help text descriptions, update references, and ensure that
https references are still valid.

	  This option enables the gathering of crypto stats.

	  This will collect:

	  This collects data sizes, numbers of requests, and numbers

	  of errors processed by:

	  - AEAD ciphers (encrypt, decrypt)

	  - asymmetric key ciphers (encrypt, decrypt, verify, sign)

	  - symmetric key ciphers (encrypt, decrypt)

	  - compression algorithms (compress, decompress)

	  - hash algorithms (hash)

	  - key-agreement protocol primitives (setsecret, generate

	    public key, compute shared secret)

	  - RNG (generate, seed)
