RFR: ChaCha20 and ChaCha20/Poly1305 Cipher implementations

[Thomas Lußnig]

Hi,

i found another point. The "key" field can be removed from ChaCha20Cipher.
1) This field is only set once and later checked if it was initialized.
      But we do not want to knew is the key exists but if key bytes exists.
2) So if two lines are changed from key to keyBytes we can remove this 
unused field.

Lines 426 , 461 (change to keyBytes)
     if (key == null
Line 75+507 (remove)
     private Key key;
     this.key = key;
