While this is needed for NVMe/TLS, it's a case of the NVMe
specifications referencing a function defined in the TLS 1.3 RFC to be
used. I though it would be clearest to fix the open-coded implemenation
by creating an RFC complient function, which is now no-longer specific
to NVMe so I moved it out to crypto/hkdf.c
I don't know that there will be other users, it just seemed to make the
most sense there.
