wolfssl: disable AES-NI by default for x86_64

WolfSSL is crashing with an illegal opcode in some x86_64 CPUs that have
AES instructions but lack other extensions that are used by WolfSSL
when AES-NI is enabled.

Disable the option by default for now until the issue is properly fixed.
People can enable them in a custom build if they are sure it will work
for them.

This will use Intel AESNI insturctions or armv8 Crypto Extensions.
Either of them should easily outperform hardware crypto in WolfSSL.
Beware that for Intel, the CPU has to support SSE4 instructions.
