/// A ciphertext containing an encapsulated shared secret for ML-KEM.
///
/// `MLKEMCiphertext` represents a ciphertext produced by the ML-KEM
/// (Module Lattice-based Key Encapsulation Mechanism) post-quantum algorithm
/// during the encapsulation process. It contains an encapsulated shared secret
/// that can only be recovered by the corresponding private key.
///
/// It supports multiple security levels through the variants:
///
/// - `MLKEM512`: NIST security level 1 (roughly equivalent to AES-128), 768 bytes
/// - `MLKEM768`: NIST security level 3 (roughly equivalent to AES-192), 1088 bytes
/// - `MLKEM1024`: NIST security level 5 (roughly equivalent to AES-256), 1568 bytes
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```
/// use bc_components::MLKEM;
///
/// // Generate a keypair
/// let (private_key, public_key) = MLKEM::MLKEM512.keypair();
///
/// // Encapsulate a shared secret using the public key
/// let (shared_secret_a, ciphertext) = public_key.encapsulate_new_shared_secret();
///
/// // Decapsulate the shared secret using the private key
/// let shared_secret_b = private_key.decapsulate_shared_secret(&ciphertext).unwrap();
///
/// // Both shared secrets should be the same
/// assert_eq!(shared_secret_a, shared_secret_b);
