Strongswan: enable rdrand and aes-ni only on X86
Strongswan fails to compile on armv7l-linux with `--enable-aesni` and `--enable-rdrand` enabled. Errors are thrown about impossible constraints in asm (`--enable-rdrand`) or about gcc getting unknown command line parameters about aes (`--enable-aesni`). The options only makes sense on X86_64 processors. The rdrand plugin is designed for Ivy Bridge processors: > High quality / high performance random source using the Intel rdrand instruction found on Ivy Bridge processors The aes-ni plugin also only exists on X86 processors (which have the AES instruction set) Tested with a local override. The change triggers a (successful) rebuild on my X86_64 system. On armv7-linux this change fixes build errors. See: https://wiki.strongswan.org/issues/337
