crypto: api - Do not displace newly registered algorithms
We have a mechanism where newly registered algorithms of a higher
priority can displace existing instances that use a different
implementation of the same algorithm with a lower priority.
Unfortunately the same mechanism can cause a newly registered
algorithm to displace itself if it depends on an existing version
of the same algorithm.
This patch fixes this by keeping all algorithms that the newly
reigstered algorithm depends on, thus protecting them from being
removed.
