Add Windows Crypto API (CNG and maybe CAPI) benchmarks #15

It would be useful to see how Rust-implemented crypto libraries compare, performance-wise, to the native crypto APis in Windows. In particular, this would help crypto library authors decide whether to defer some or all algorithms to the OS on Windows.

I don't know of any Rust bindings for these APIs, so either (a) the initial set of benchmarks can be in C, or (b) some bindings need to be made.
