I've pushed several fixes to master now, so we are getting closer...

One of the things I want to clean up was the use of 'int' to specify
data lengths in _some_ of the new crypto APIs:

int gnutls_cipher_encrypt (const gnutls_cipher_hd_t handle,
                           void *text, int textlen);

Some of the new APIs use size_t instead:

int gnutls_hmac (gnutls_hmac_hd_t handle, const void *text, size_t textlen);

I believe all of them should use 'size_t' -- it is the proper type to
use for data lengths in C.  Nikos, what do you think?  I'd appreciate if
you could fix this, but I'll get to it eventually.
