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](1a64574f42).
Therefore using `sha256-simd` has no benefits anymore.

ARM already has optimized sha256 assembly code since
7b8a7f8272,
`sha256-simd` published their results before that optimized assembly was
implemented,
f941fedda8.
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`:
