crypto: chacha20 - Add a four block SSSE3 variant for x86_64

Extends the x86_64 SSSE3 ChaCha20 implementation by a function processing
four ChaCha20 blocks in parallel. This avoids the word shuffling needed
in the single block variant, further increasing throughput.

For large messages, throughput increases by ~110% compared to single block
SSSE3:
