This caused Doxygen to think this was markup meant for it, which really
caused some clutter in the namespace page.

the implementation rather than the preferred one. Update all
implementations.
Add a new function parallel_bytes() which returns
parallelism() * BLOCK_SIZE * BUILD_TIME_CONSTANT
This is because i noticed all current calls of parallelism() just
multiplied the result by the block size already, so this simplified
that code.
The build time constant is set to 4, which was the previous default
return value of parallelism(). However the SIMD versions returned
2*native paralellism rather than 4*, so this increases the buffer
sizes used for those algorithms.
The constant multiple lives in buildh.in and build.h, and is named
BOTAN_BLOCK_CIPHER_PAR_MULT.

Default unless specified is now 4.
For SIMD code, use 2x the number of blocks which are processed in
parallel using SIMD by that cipher. It may make sense to increase this to
4x or even more, further experimentation is necessary.

depend on the particular implementation. Add a new virtual function to
BlockCipher named parallelism that returns the number of blocks the
cipher object could or might want to process in parallel. Currently
set to 1 by default but may make sense to increase this for even
scalar implementations since it seems like better caching behavior
makes it a win.

just too fragile and not that useful. Something like Java's checked exceptions
might be nice, but simply killing the process entirely if an unexpected
exception is thrown is not exactly useful for something trying to be robust.

decryption. Currently only used for counter mode. Doesn't offer much
advantage as-is (though might help slightly, in terms of cache effects),
but allows for SIMD implementations to process multiple blocks in parallel
when possible. Particularly thinking here of Serpent; TEA/XTEA also seem
promising in this sense, as is Threefish once that is implemented as a
standalone block cipher.

up during the Fedora submission review, that each source file include some
text about the license. One handy Perl script later and each file now has
the line
Distributed under the terms of the Botan license
after the copyright notices.
While I was in there modifying every file anyway, I also stripped out the
remainder of the block comments (lots of astericks before and after the
text); this is stylistic thing I picked up when I was first learning C++
but in retrospect it is not a good style as the structure makes it harder
to modify comments (with the result that comments become fewer, shorter and
are less likely to be updated, which are not good things).
