This splits the AES API into two parts, one for reading, one for writing. This has two advantages:

  • The new API is non-blocking.
  • This paves the way for adding DMA support to the API.

I've kept the previous process method as a convenience wrapper around the new read/write methods.

I'm currently working on adding DMA support to the AES API. This is an in-progress snapshot, but it's already an improvements in itself, so I figured I submit it here, as smaller changes are easier to review and merge.

I have additional commits here, to test on the Tlera Corp Gnat: https://github.com/braun-embedded/stm32l0xx-hal/compare/aes-dma...braun-embedded:aes-gnat

Revert the AES module to my original formatting, as rustfmt is no longer
mandatory.
I'm currently working on adding DMA support to the AES API. To do that
effectively, I need different structs for AES input and output, but
those can only be available while the AES peripheral is active.

This commit prepares to add those input/output structs, by using a
different struct to represent an active AES peripheral, `CtrStream`.
The input/output structs can then be added to that.
This change is already beneficial on its own, as the new API is
non-blocking. In addition, it paves the way for adding DMA support to
the AES API.

The old blocking API is kept for convenience. It is now implemented as a
wrapper on top of the new API.
