aes*, block-modes, and secret-service crates



Hi team,

I've noticed that the aes-ctr, aesni and aes-soft crates are all marked
deprecated with a 0.99.99 version, suggesting use of aes instead. It seems a
good idea to remove them:

aesni is never uploaded; reverse dependency search finds nothing for aes-ctr,
only an older version of aes for aes-soft, but current version 0.8.2 of aes
doesn't depend on aes* crates anymore.

aes is a dependency of secret-service, which holds a wip/secret-service branch
since 5 Nov 2019 and has seen only "QA uploads" with no real usage. It's still a
useful crate and I plan to suggest a dependency update upstream.

block-modes is another dependency of secret-service, also deprecated and have no
other rdeps.

I suggest that we RM aes-ctr, aes-soft and block-modes since they are deprecated
upstream and nothing uses them (when secret-service is updated actually), and
update aes and secret-service to an adequate state.
