crypto: x86/aesni - update docs for aesni-intel module
Update the kconfig help and module description to reflect that VAES instructions are now used in some cases. Also fix XTR => XCTR. Signed-off-by: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@google.com> Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>

- AES-NI (AES new instructions)

- VAES (Vector AES)

Some algorithm implementations are supported only in 64-bit builds,

and some have additional prerequisites such as AVX2 or AVX512.
