New stable Botan branch, 1.4

Botan 1.4.0 has been released. No major changes versus 1.3.14, lots and lots of new stuff as compared with 1.2.8. Currently there are no RPMs available, I'll try to get those up later this weekend.

Major Rewrite of Support for AEP crypto cards

Most of the AEP engine support has been written, though I want to do cleanup and much more testing before releasing it. I also haven't added support for the hardware RNG that AEP cards include yet. In single-threaded code, RSA is 3 to 10 times faster than the host CPU (1.4 Ghz Athlon). In multi-threaded code, or on systems with a heavy CPU load, the improvement should be even more noticeable.

AEP2000 Crypto Card Donated by AEP Systems

AEP Systems has generously donated an AEP2000 crypto card. I'll be working on an engine module to support it this week. This is probably the last major feature to be added before 1.4.0 is released later this month.
