* \brief This file contains the AEAD-ChaCha20-Poly1305 definitions and
* functions.
*
* ChaCha20-Poly1305 is an algorithm for Authenticated Encryption
* with Associated Data (AEAD) that can be used to encrypt and
* authenticate data. It is based on ChaCha20 and Poly1305 by Daniel
* Bernstein and was standardized in RFC 7539.

* \brief This function initializes the specified ChaCha20-Poly1305 context.
*
* It must be the first API called before using
* the context. It must be followed by a call to
* \c mbedtls_chachapoly_setkey() before any operation can be
* done, and to \c mbedtls_chachapoly_free() once all
* operations with that context have been finished.
*
* In order to encrypt or decrypt full messages at once, for
* each message you should make a single call to
* \c mbedtls_chachapoly_crypt_and_tag() or
* \c mbedtls_chachapoly_auth_decrypt().
*
* In order to encrypt messages piecewise, for each
* message you should make a call to
* \c mbedtls_chachapoly_starts(), then 0 or more calls to
* \c mbedtls_chachapoly_update_aad(), then 0 or more calls to
* \c mbedtls_chachapoly_update(), then one call to
* \c mbedtls_chachapoly_finish().
*
* \warning Decryption with the piecewise API is discouraged! Always
* use \c mbedtls_chachapoly_auth_decrypt() when possible!
*
* If however this is not possible because the data is too
* large to fit in memory, you need to:
*
* - call \c mbedtls_chachapoly_starts() and (if needed)
* \c mbedtls_chachapoly_update_aad() as above,
* - call \c mbedtls_chachapoly_update() multiple times and
* ensure its output (the plaintext) is NOT used in any other
* way than placing it in temporary storage at this point,
* - call \c mbedtls_chachapoly_finish() to compute the
* authentication tag and compared it in constant time to the
* tag received with the ciphertext.
*
* If the tags are not equal, you must immediately discard
* all previous outputs of \c mbedtls_chachapoly_update(),
* otherwise you can now safely use the plaintext.
