Add a complete but untested AES-128 using the AES-NI intrinsics.
From looking at how key gen works in particular, it seems easiest to provide only AES-128, AES-192, and AES-256 and not a general AES class that can accept any key length. This also has the bonus of allowing full loop unrolling which may be a win (how much so will depend on the latency/throughput of the AES instructions which is currently unknown). No block interleaving, though of course it works very nicely here, simply due to the desire to keep things simple until what is currently here can actually be tested. (Intel has an emulator that is supposed to work but just crashes on my machine...) I'm not entirely sure if byte swapping is required. Intel has a white paper out that suggests it isn't (and really it would have been stupid of them to not build this into the aes instructions), but who knows. If it turns out to be necessary there is a pretty fast bswap instruction for SSE anyway.
