Renaming AES to AES-128

[Bernhard Reiter]

What about renaming "AES" to "AES-128" in libgcrypt?
Currently a user cannot see to what keylength AES refers to and some
might believe it could be 256. So there is a potential for confusion
which is something a security aware software should avoid of course.

The code is in:
http://cvs.gnupg.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/tags/libgcrypt-1.4.4/cipher/rijndael.c?revision=1383&root=Libgcrypt&view=markup

AES128 and AES-128 already exist as aliases for "AES".

Opinions?
