DESCRIPTION
     These functions are used to encrypt and decrypt data.

     krb5_encrypt_ivec() puts the encrypted version of data (of size len) in
     result.  If the encryption type supports using derived keys, usage should
     be the appropriate key-usage.  ivec is a pointer to a initial IV, it is
     modified to the end IV at the end of the round.  Ivec should be the size
     of If NULL is passed in, the default IV is used.  krb5_encrypt() does the
     same as krb5_encrypt_ivec() but with ivec being NULL.
     krb5_encrypt_EncryptedData() does the same as krb5_encrypt(), but it puts
     the encrypted data in a EncryptedData structure instead. If kvno is not
     zero, it will be put in the (optional) kvno field in the EncryptedData.

     krb5_decrypt_ivec(), krb5_decrypt(), and krb5_decrypt_EncryptedData()
     works similarly.

     krb5_decrypt_ticket() decrypts the encrypted part of ticket with key.
     krb5_decrypt_ticket() also verifies the timestamp in the ticket, invalid
     flag and if the KDC haven't verified the transited path, the transit
     path.

     krb5_enctype_keysize(), krb5_crypto_getconfoundersize(),
     krb5_crypto_getblocksize(), krb5_crypto_getenctype(),
     krb5_crypto_getpadsize(), krb5_crypto_overhead() all returns various
     (sometimes) useful information from a crypto context.
     krb5_crypto_overhead() is the combination of
     krb5_crypto_getconfoundersize, krb5_crypto_getblocksize and
     krb5_crypto_getpadsize and return the maximum overhead size.

     krb5_enctype_to_string() converts a encryption type number to a string
     that can be printable and stored. The strings returned should be freed
     with free(3).

     krb5_string_to_enctype() converts a encryption type strings to a
     encryption type number that can use used for other Kerberos crypto
     functions.

     krb5_enctype_valid() returns 0 if the encrypt is supported and not
     disabled, otherwise and error code is returned.

     krb5_enctype_disable() (globally, for all contextes) disables the
     enctype.

     krb5_get_wrapped_length() returns the size of an encrypted packet by
     crypto of length data_len.
