The update checking mechanism references the tests, and thus
dbaafbbf73ef5aeb2fa7d5aea73bb32b9d78e4f3 turned it into a crash at
startup.
It isn't much use in nixpkgs, so we're better off without it.

The current version seems to accelerate AES and SHA families.
Size increase on x86_64 is <10k in our case.
It can make quite some performance difference; I tried
$ time ./result-dev/bin/nettle-hash -a sha256 /some/file/around/2G
And the total CPU time went down from 8.5s to 2s (single thread).
Now it matches the time of openssl
$ time openssl sha256 /some/file/around/2G
Of course, in real life it will be much harder to notice a difference...
Platforms without support for this (e.g. i686) seem to still build fine,
and ARMv7 cross-build also succeeds for me, so hopefully all is OK.
Otherwise it fails with:
