 Remove the weak key checks from the builtin rc4 enc provider.  There
 is no standards support for avoiding RC4 weak keys, so rejecting them
 causes periodic failures.  Heimdal and Microsoft do not check for weak
 keys.  Attacks based on these weak keys are probably thwarted by the
 use of a confounder, and even if not, the reduction in work factor is
 not terribly significant for 128-bit keys.
