Add rust-nettle (nettle) benchmarks #14

There is a rust-nettle crate, so that should help.

Nettle is a very interesting library that implements a few things in a very interesting way, differently than many crypto libraries (Rust or C or otherwise) do them. It even has assembly-language-optimized P-384, which almost nobody else bothers with! So, it might very well be faster than everything else, at least in some benchmarks.

@johnschug Do you have any tips for using your rust-nettle crate? the goal here is to measure its performance relative to the other libraries being benchmarked in this crate.
