Subject: [PATCH 08/18] crypto: testmgr - run only subset of DH vectors based on config

With the previous patches, the testmgr now has up to four test vectors for
DH which all test more or less the same thing:
- the two vectors from before this series,
- the vector for the ffdhe2048 group, enabled if
  CONFIG_CRYPTO_DH_GROUPS_RFC7919 is set and
- the vector for the modp2048 group, similarly enabled if
  CONFIG_CRYPTO_DH_GROUPS_RFC3526 is set.

In order to avoid too much redundancy during DH testing, enable only a
subset of these depending on the kernel config:
- if CONFIG_CRYPTO_DH_GROUPS_RFC7919 is set, enable only the ffdhe2048
  vector,
- otherwise, if CONFIG_CRYPTO_DH_GROUPS_RFC3526 is set, enable only
  the modp2048 vector and
- only enable the original two vectors if neither of these options
  has been selected.

Note that an upcoming patch will make the DH implementation to reject any
domain parameters not corresponding to some safe-prime group approved by
SP800-56Arev3 in FIPS mode. Thus, having CONFIG_FIPS enabled, but
both of CONFIG_CRYPTO_DH_GROUPS_RFC7919 and
CONFIG_CRYPTO_DH_GROUPS_RFC3526 unset wouldn't make much sense as it would
render the DH implementation unusable in FIPS mode. Conversely, any
reasonable configuration would ensure that the original, non-conforming
test vectors would not get to run in FIPS mode.
