The EVP_CIPHER_CTX_cleanup() call seems superfluous. We know that the
context isn't initialized yet, so no need to clean it up.

Removed that, did some further cosmetic changes, and pushed. I renamed a
bunch variables and structs, so that they are more consistent with the
similar digest stuff.

Thanks!
