I'm a bit uneasy about the set_nonce pointer. It's used only for umac,
where nonce use is a bit peculiar with the auto-increment optimization.

Would it be ok to leave umac out, and move the definition of nettle_mac
from testutils.h as is (except that the comment "other sizes are
sometimes possible" on the key_size field seems wrong)?

Then nettle_mac is very similar to nettle_hash, one just calls ->set_key
instead of ->init, and one can then hash several messages with the same
key using a sequence of ->update and ->digest calls.
