- * +------+ +------+---...---+------...------+

+ * 32 32 blksz sz
*
* All of this is fed into the MAC to compute a tag. The type is not
* transmitted: the other end knows what type of message it expects, and the
* kind of ciphertext has been substituted. The tag is prepended to the
* remainder, to yield the finished cryptogram, as follows.
*
- * +---...---+------+---...---+------...------+
- * | tag | seq | iv | ciphertext |
- * +---...---+------+---...---+------...------+
- * tagsz 32 blksz sz
+ * +---...---+--------+---...---+------...------+
+ * | tag | seq | iv | ciphertext |
+ * +---...---+--------+---...---+------...------+
+ * tagsz 32 blksz sz
*
* Decryption: checks the overall size, verifies the tag, then decrypts the
* ciphertext and extracts the sequence number.
*
* So, a MAC is computed over

*

+ * This transform uses a general authenticated encryption scheme. Processing
+ * additional authenticated data isn't needed for encrypting messages, but it
+ * is required for challenge generation. Good options include `chacha20-
+ * poly1305' or `rijndael-ocb3'; alas, `salsa20-naclbox' isn't acceptable.
*
- * To be acceptable, the scheme must accept at least a 64-bit nonce. (All of
- * Catacomb's current AEAD schemes are suitable.) The low 32 bits are the
- * sequence number, and the high 32 bits are the type, both big-endian.
+ * To be acceptable, the scheme must accept at least a 40-bit nonce. (All of
+ * Catacomb's current AEAD schemes are suitable in this respect.) The low 32
+ * bits are the sequence number. The type is written to the next 8--32
+ * bytes: if the nonce size is 64 bits or more (preferred, for compatibility
+ * reasons) then the type is written as 32 bits, and the remaining space is
+ * padded with zero bytes; otherwise, the type is right-aligned in the
+ * remaining space. Both fields are big-endian.
