For SPA packets encrypted with Rjindael, fwknop has always used CBC mode
even though ECB mode is mentioned in a couple of places. This change makes
more transparent use of block_encrypt() and block_decrypt() to ensure that
the appropriate mode is used. The default is CBC mode, but others can be
selected as well (-M <mode> for the fwknop client, and ENCRYPTION_MODE in
access.conf for the fwknopd server).
This is a significant update to allow AES encryption modes to be selected on a
per-key basis. For now, only ECB and CBC (recommended) modes are supported.
The default is ECB modes in order to maintain backwards compatibility with the
older perl version of fwknop and the Crypt::CBC CPAN module. This will likely
be changed to use CBC mode by default because of its better security
properties.
In the access.conf file on the server side, there is a new configuration
variable "ENCRYPTION_MODE" that controls the mode for the corresponding AES
key. On the client side, a new command line argument "--encryption-mode"
controls how the client encrypts SPA packets.
The two memory leaks were found with the test suite running in
--enable-valgrind mode - here are the relevant error messages:

There is also a new clean_exit() function that makes it easier to ensure that
resources are deallocated upon existing.
Added the 'const' qualifier to function prototype variables where possible.
In addition, reduced some functions to file-scope with 'static' where possible.
Also made a few minor changes to remove extra whitespace, and fixed a bug
in create_fwknoprc() to ensure the new fwknoprc filehandle is closed.
cipher_funcs.c:85: warning: ignoring return value of ‘fread’, declared with attribute warn_unused_result
A few of these were in code in the lib/ directory, and required adding a
new error code 'FKO_ERROR_FILESYSTEM_OPERATION' and associated error
string 'Read/write bytes mismatch'.
