Introduce public macro for maximum symmetric cipher key length

Browse source 
This commit introduces the public macro MBEDTLS_MAX_KEY_LENGTH,
which evaluates to an upper bound for the key lengths of all enabled
ciphers, in Bytes.

This is analogous to the already existing macros MBEDTLS_MAX_IV_LENGTH
and MBEDTLS_MAX_BLOCK_LENGTH, which provide upper bounds for the IV
and block length, respectively.

For now, MBEDTLS_MAX_KEY_LENGTH is 32 Bytes by default, and 64 in case
XTS is enabled. This is a strict overapproximation for some restricted
configurations. Ideally, the upper bound should be calculated exactly
and automatically from the list of enabled ciphers. The same applies
to the existing macros MBEDTLS_MAX_IV_LENGTH and MBEDTLS_MAX_BLOCK_LENGTH,
though, and is left for future work.
