chacha20 0.5.0

The ChaCha20 stream cipher (RFC 8439) implemented in pure Rust using traits from the RustCrypto stream-cipher crate, with optional architecture-specific hardware acceleration (AVX2, SSE2). Additionally provides the ChaCha8, ChaCha12, and XChaCha20 stream ciphers, and also optional rand_core-compatible RNGs based on those ciphers.

## 0.3.0 (2020-01-15) [YANKED]

NOTE: This release was yanked due to a showstopper bug in the newly added
buffering logic which when seeking in the keystream could result in plaintexts
being clobbered with the keystream instead of XOR'd correctly.

The bug was addressed in v0.3.1 ([#86]).

### Added
- AVX2 accelerated implementation ([#83])
- ChaCha8 and ChaCha20 reduced round variants ([#84])

### Changed
- Simplify portable implementation ([#76])
- Make 2018 edition crate; MSRV 1.34+ ([#77])
- Replace `salsa20-core` dependency with `ctr`-derived buffering ([#81])

### Removed
- `byteorder` dependency ([#80])
