RustCrypto: Ascon permutation

Pure Rust implementation of the Ascon permutation, winner of the NIST Lightweight Cryptography competition.

This is a low-level crate used for implementation of higher-level agorithms, e.g. ascon-hash256, ascon-xof128, and ascon-aead128.

Minimum Supported Rust Version

This crate requires Rust 1.85 at a minimum.

We may change the MSRV in the future, but it will be accompanied by a minor version bump.
