engines/dasync: add explaining comments about AES-128-CBC-HMAC-SHA1
Fixes #7950
It was reported that there might be a null pointer dereference in the
implementation of the dasync_aes_128_cbc_hmac_sha1() cipher, because
EVP_aes_128_cbc_hmac_sha1() can return a null pointer if AES-NI is
not available. It took some analysis to find out that this is not
an issue in practice, and these comments explain the reason to comfort
further NPD hunters.
