Adds afalg-backend cipher support: introduces some private APIs
firstly, and then intergrates them into qcrypto_cipher_afalg_driver.

You should pass Error **errp into this method & set error in
the default case.

You're printing into a fixed length buffer here with no bounds
checking. Please use snprintf and report an error if it is too
large to fit.

The afalg_comm_alloc() function should take an 'Error **errp' so it can
report a more specific message.

error_setg_errno() to report a real error message

Again, error_setg_errno()

Don't report an error here - make afalg_cipher_op() report
it

Hi Daniel,

Now the libiary-backend methods are named as "nettle(gcrypt,glib,builtin)_...",
so if I rename them with "qcrypto_afalg_" prefix , then the libiary-backend
methods need with "qcrypto_nettle(gcrypt,glib,builtin)_" prefix , right ?

Yep, that's right - every method in the crypto/ directory should have a
qcrypto_ name prefix, even if it is a static method.
