Continuation of the work from #174.
Fixslicing is defined for
AES-128/AES-256(now with AES-192!) encryption only, but we can replace bitslicing in these capacities with the faster fixslicing approach.This is useful for AES-CTR, which needs only the encryption operation.
Performance is improved by ~3X as measured on an Intel Core i9 (despite the fixslicing implementation being 32-bit only)

(AES-192 is unchanged, as it still uses the original bitsliced implementation)
