[RFC PATCH 2/8] crypto: testmgr - generate power-of-2 lengths more often

Implementations of hash functions often have special cases when lengths
are a multiple of the hash function's internal block size (e.g. 64 for
SHA-256, 128 for SHA-512). Currently, when the fuzz testing code
generates lengths, it doesn't prefer any length mod 64 over any other.
This limits the coverage of these special cases.

Therefore, this patch updates the fuzz testing code to generate
power-of-2 lengths and divide messages exactly in half a bit more often.
