Adding GCM-SIV mode for AES #7531

OpenSSL has recently added a GCM-SIV mode for AES. This mode offers nonce-reuse resistance for projects that require safe and repeated use of the same keys (databases, incremental backups, etc.) while maintaining relatively high throughput vs the low throughput of plain SIV mode.

We’ll be happy to add this once an openssl release ships with it. Is it planned for 3.1 now? I don’t believe that release has a date yet unfortunately.

Looks like this isn't in 3.1.0 so it will (hopefully) be in 3.2.0.

We're going to track this in #9795 now that 3.2's release is imminent.
