David Benjamin f86693dff7 Document the correct nonce length for AES-GCM.
It would be nice to restrict these, limiting the incorrect sizes to a
separate EVP_AEAD, but start by documenting this.

// Authenticated Encryption with Additional Data.
//
// AEAD couples confidentiality and integrity in a single primitive. AEAD
// algorithms take a key and then can seal and open individual messages. Each
// message has a unique, per-message nonce and, optionally, additional data
// which is authenticated but not included in the ciphertext.
//
// The |EVP_AEAD_CTX_init| function initialises an |EVP_AEAD_CTX| structure and
// performs any precomputation needed to use |aead| with |key|. The length of
// the key, |key_len|, is given in bytes.
//
// The |tag_len| argument contains the length of the tags, in bytes, and allows
// for the processing of truncated authenticators. A zero value indicates that
// the default tag length should be used and this is defined as
// |EVP_AEAD_DEFAULT_TAG_LENGTH| in order to make the code clear. Using
// truncated tags increases an attacker's chance of creating a valid forgery.
// Be aware that the attacker's chance may increase more than exponentially as
// would naively be expected.
//
// When no longer needed, the initialised |EVP_AEAD_CTX| structure must be
// passed to |EVP_AEAD_CTX_cleanup|, which will deallocate any memory used.
//
// With an |EVP_AEAD_CTX| in hand, one can seal and open messages. These
// operations are intended to meet the standard notions of privacy and
// authenticity for authenticated encryption. For formal definitions see
// Bellare and Namprempre, "Authenticated encryption: relations among notions
// and analysis of the generic composition paradigm," Lecture Notes in Computer
// Science B<1976> (2000), 531545,
// http://www-cse.ucsd.edu/~mihir/papers/oem.html.
//
// When sealing messages, a nonce must be given. The length of the nonce is
// fixed by the AEAD in use and is returned by |EVP_AEAD_nonce_length|. *The
// nonce must be unique for all messages with the same key*. This is critically
// important - nonce reuse may completely undermine the security of the AEAD.
// Nonces may be predictable and public, so long as they are unique. Uniqueness
// may be achieved with a simple counter or, if large enough, may be generated
// randomly. The nonce must be passed into the "open" operation by the receiver
// so must either be implicit (e.g. a counter), or must be transmitted along
// with the sealed message.
//
// The "seal" and "open" operations are atomic - an entire message must be
// encrypted or decrypted in a single call. Large messages may have to be split
// up in order to accommodate this. When doing so, be mindful of the need not to
// repeat nonces and the possibility that an attacker could duplicate, reorder
// or drop message chunks. For example, using a single key for a given (large)
// message and sealing chunks with nonces counting from zero would be secure as
// long as the number of chunks was securely transmitted. (Otherwise an
// attacker could truncate the message by dropping chunks from the end.)
//
// The number of chunks could be transmitted by prefixing it to the plaintext,
// for example. This also assumes that no other message would ever use the same
// key otherwise the rule that nonces must be unique for a given key would be
// violated.
//
// The "seal" and "open" operations also permit additional data to be
// authenticated via the |ad| parameter. This data is not included in the
// ciphertext and must be identical for both the "seal" and "open" call. This
// permits implicit context to be authenticated but may be empty if not needed.
//
// The "seal" and "open" operations may work in-place if the |out| and |in|
// arguments are equal. Otherwise, if |out| and |in| alias, input data may be
// overwritten before it is read. This situation will cause an error.
//
// The "seal" and "open" operations return one on success and zero on error.
