This commit removes FIPS 140-2 related code for the following
reasons:
- FIPS 140-2 is a compliance, not a security requirement. Being
FIPS 140-2 compliant has no security implication on its own.
From a tech. perspetive, a FIPS 140-2 compliant implementation
is not necessarily secure and a non-FIPS 140-2 compliant implementation
is not necessarily insecure. It depends on the concret design and
crypto primitives/constructions used.
- The boringcrypto branch used to achieve FIPS 140-2 compliance was never
officially supported by the Go team and is now in maintainance mode.
It is replaced by a built-in FIPS 140-3 module. It will be removed
eventually. Ref: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/69536
- FIPS 140-2 modules are no longer re-certified after Sep. 2026.

Add up to 256 bytes of padding for compressed+encrypted files.
This will obscure the obvious cases of extremely compressible content
and leave a similar output size for a very wide variety of inputs.
This does *not* mean the compression ratio doesn't leak information
about the content, but the outcome space is much smaller,
so often *less* information is leaked.
This is to ensure that there are no projects
that try to import `minio/minio/pkg` into
their own repo. Any such common packages should
go to `https://github.com/minio/pkg`
