noise: separate receive counter from send counter

In "queueing: preserve flow hash across packet scrubbing", we were
required to slightly increase the size of the receive replay counter to
something still fairly small, but an increase nonetheless.  It turns out
that we can recoup some of the additional memory overhead by splitting
up the prior union type into two distinct types. Before, we used the
same "noise_counter" union for both sending and receiving, with sending
just using a simple atomic64_t, while receiving used the full replay
counter checker. This meant that most of the memory being allocated for
the sending counter was being wasted. Since the old "noise_counter" type
increased in size in the prior commit, now is a good time to split up
that union type into a distinct "noise_replay_ counter" for receiving
and a boring atomic64_t for sending, each using neither more nor less
memory than required.

Also, since sometimes the replay counter is accessed without
necessitating additional accesses to the bitmap, we can reduce cache
misses by hoisting the always-necessary lock above the bitmap in the
struct layout. We also change a "noise_replay_counter" stack allocation
to kmalloc in a -DDEBUG selftest so that KASAN doesn't trigger a stack
frame warning.

All and all, removing a bit of abstraction in this commit makes the code
simpler and smaller, in addition to the motivating memory usage
recuperation. For example, passing around raw "noise_symmetric_key"
structs is something that really only makes sense within noise.c, in the
one place where the sending and receiving keys can safely be thought of
as the same type of object; subsequent to that, it's important that we
uniformly access these through keypair->{sending,receiving}, where their
distinct roles are always made explicit. So this patch allows us to draw
that distinction clearly as well.
