SPECK crypto cipher

[Peter Robinson]

Thought I'd ask this one on list for reference.

So in 4.17 upstream added the SPECK cipher [1] but for reference the
ISO has rejected it (and SIMON) due to being designed by the NSA [2],
not sure it specifically matters for Fedora but I thought I'd put the
question out there if there's any thoughts or opinions on it.

I believe from a Linux perspective it's currently primarily used on
low end android phones that don't have HW crypto offload so it might
not even be widely used in Fedora.
