simd_register_skciphers_compat() and simd_register_aeads_compat()
derive the wrapper algorithm names by stripping the __ prefix from the
internal algorithm names.

Currently they only WARN if cra_name or cra_driver_name lacks that prefix,
but they still continue and unconditionally add 2 to both strings. That
registers wrapper algorithms with incorrectly truncated names after a
violated precondition.

Reject such inputs with -EINVAL before registering anything, while keeping
the warning so invalid internal API usage is still visible.

Fixes: d14f0a1fc488 ("crypto: simd - allow registering multiple algorithms at once")
Fixes: 1661131a0479 ("crypto: simd - support wrapping AEAD algorithms")
