GustedandGitHub 356c5055ad lib/sha256: Remove it (#9643 )

### Purpose

Remove the `lib/sha256` package, because it's no longer necessary. Go's
standard library now has the same performance and is on par with
`sha256-simd` since [Since Go
1.21](https://github.com/golang/go/commit/1a64574f42b95594cf9c8a12e9ca13d75585429c).
Therefore using `sha256-simd` has no benefits anymore.

ARM already has optimized sha256 assembly code since
https://github.com/golang/go/commit/7b8a7f8272fd1941a199af1adb334bd9996e8909,
`sha256-simd` published their results before that optimized assembly was
implemented,
https://github.com/minio/sha256-simd/commit/f941fedda826b68a196de2e0a9183e273ec0cb91.
The assembly looks very similar and the benchmarks in the Go commit
match that of `sha256-simd`.

This patch removes all of the related code of `lib/sha256` and makes
`crypto/sha256` the 'default'.

Benchmark of `sha256-simd` and `crypto/sha256`:
