Kingsley Yung 33443d21aa script: Use hkdf crate for HKDF in WebCrypto (#40650)
We currently use the crate `aws-lc-rs` for HKDF in the WebCrypto API.
When generating output bytes from the output of HKDF-Expand operation
(OKM, Output Key Material), it enforces the requested output length must
match the length of key type (see error condition of `Okm::fill` at
https://docs.rs/aws-lc-rs/1.14.1/aws_lc_rs/hkdf/struct.Okm.html#method.fill).
However, according to the WebCrypto API specification, user should be
allowed to choose the output length
(https://w3c.github.io/webcrypto/#hkdf-operations-derive-bits). The
restriction from `aws-lc-rs` causes several HKDF-related WPT tests to
fail.

This patch switches to use a more flexible crate `hkdf`
(https://crates.io/crates/hkdf) for implementing HKDF in our WebCrypto
API, and allowing variable length output. This helps to make those
HKDF-related WPT tests pass.

Testing: Pass some WPT tests that were expected to fail.
