I noticed that growslice() shows up in the cpuprofile.
Avoiding slice append for the private jey copy gives a 0.6% speedup:
gocryptfs/internal/speed$ benchstat old new

StupidXchacha-4 5.68µs ± 0% 5.65µs ± 0% -0.63% (p=0.008 n=5+5)
name old speed new speed delta
StupidXchacha-4 721MB/s ± 0% 725MB/s ± 0% +0.63% (p=0.008 n=5+5)
2% performance improvement, almost for free.

StupidXchacha-4 704MB/s ± 0% 721MB/s ± 0% +2.43% (p=0.008 n=5+5)
Gets the decryption speed to the same level as the
encryption speed.

Go has a high overhead for each C call, so batch
all openssl operations in the new C function chacha20poly1305_seal.

Our git version is v2+ for some time now, but go.mod
still declared v1. Hopefully making both match makes
https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/v2 work.
All the import paths have been fixed like this:
find . -name \*.go | xargs sed -i s%github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/%github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/v2/%
Everything except the
if err2.Err == syscall.EOPNOTSUPP
case. Gets too confusing when collapsed into a single line.

We used to prefer openssl in this situation, which
used to make sense, but now Go gained an optimized
assembly implementation for aes-gcm on arm64 with
aes instructions:

Now that I have discovered golang.org/x/sys/cpu and that Go
versions below 1.6 are uncommon, there was not much useful
code left in prefer_openssl.
Merge the remains into stupidgcm.
On MacOS, building and testing without openssl is much easier.
The tests should skip tests that fail because of missing openssl
instead of aborting.
Fixes https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/123
Fixed by including the correct header. Should work on older openssl
versions as well.
Error was:
locking.go:21: undefined reference to `CRYPTO_set_locking_callback'
This commit defines all exit codes in one place in the exitcodes
package.
Also, it adds a test to verify the exit code on incorrect
password, which is what SiriKali cares about the most.
Fixes https://github.com/rfjakob/gocryptfs/issues/77 .
