std/crypto: use finer-grained error sets in function signatures
Returning the `crypto.Error` error set for all crypto operations
was very convenient to ensure that errors were used consistently,
and to avoid having multiple error names for the same thing.
The flipside is that callers were forced to always handle all
possible errors, even those that could never be returned by a
function.
This PR makes all functions return union sets of the actual errors
they can return.
The error sets themselves are all limited to a single error.
Larger sets are useful for platform-specific APIs, but we don't have
any of these in `std/crypto`, and I couldn't find any meaningful way
to build larger sets.
OCB has been around for a long time.
It's simpler, faster and more secure than AES-GCM.
RFC 7253 was published in 2014. OCB also won the CAESAR competition
along with AEGIS.
It's been implemented in OpenSSL and other libraries for years.
So, why isn't everybody using it instead of GCM? And why don't we
have it in Zig already?
The sad reason for this was patents. GCM was invented only to work
around these patents, and for all this time, OCB was that nice
thing that everybody knew existed but that couldn't be freely used.
That just changed. The OCB patents are now abandoned, and OCB's
author just announced that OCB was officially public domain.
