Botan 1.8.7: XTS fix, support for minimal builds

Botan 1.8.7 has been released with one bugfix and one small new feature in the build system.

Up until now XTS mode in either encryption or decryption would not correctly process more than one message, because a buffer index was not being reset to zero at the end of each message. This has been fixed.

By user request, a new option --no-autoload is now available in configure.py. This option causes botan to be configured for a fairly minimalistic build, to which further algorithms can be enabled using --enable-modules.
