Problems with AES-GCM native acceleration

[Vladimir Kozlov]

CCing to core-libs and security.

Based on last comment corresponding java code may need to be re-factored. It is not simple.

To trigger x64 AES instructions usage early (before JIT compilation kicks in) we may consider call optimized code from 
Interpreter similar to CRC32 code. It is also very big investment.
