Prevents chacha20-1305 aead cipher encryption/decryption from accepting too long/short key size. For chacha20-1305 openssl reads fixed 32 bytes from the buffer passed by the user, even if the buffer is shorter in reality, triggering out of bounds read, and we had checks for that disabled.
In addition to that
EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_lengthcalls were added for all aead ciphers, this might detect invalid key sizes set by the programmer in the source code, because this function will validate the key size even for fixed key size ciphers.Contains the fix from #11330 because added validation also causes an early exit, and destructor trying to free a garbage pointer.
