Update aes_gcm_dec_final_vaes_avx2() to be consistent with
aes_gcm_dec_final_aesni() and aes_gcm_dec_final_vaes_avx512() by
initializing the full %rax return register instead of just %al.
Technically this is unnecessary, since these functions return bool.  But
I think it's worth being extra careful with the result of the tag
comparison and also keeping the different implementations consistent.
