util2: new `load_fake_cryptodome()` function

The eth-key and monero-python packages used in the test suite require the
keccak256() function provided by the pycryptodome (pycryptodomex) package.

pycryptodome is used in the MMGen code base only by these packages, and only for
testing.

This monkey-patch function eliminates dependency on pycryptodome on systems that
provide keccak256() via hashlib (>=OpenSSL 3.2, >=Python 3.13, latest MSYS2).
