crypto: bump min nettle to 3.4, dropping RHEL-7 support

It has been over two years since RHEL-8 was released, and thus per the
platform build policy, we no longer need to support RHEL-7 as a build
target. This lets us increment the minimum required nettle version and
drop a lot of backwards compatibility code for 2.x series of nettle.

Per repology, current shipping versions are:

             RHEL-8: 3.4.1
      Debian Buster: 3.4.1
 openSUSE Leap 15.2: 3.4.1
   Ubuntu LTS 18.04: 3.4
   Ubuntu LTS 20.04: 3.5.1
            FreeBSD: 3.7.2
          Fedora 33: 3.5.1
          Fedora 34: 3.7.2
            OpenBSD: 3.7.2
     macOS HomeBrew: 3.7.2

Ubuntu LTS 18.04 has the oldest version and so 3.4 is the new minimum.
