/*
 * Using public-key authenticated encryption, Bob can encrypt a
 * confidential message specifically for Alice, using Alice's public
 * key.
 *
 * Using Bob's public key, Alice can verify that the encrypted
 * message was actually created by Bob and was not tampered with,
 * before eventually decrypting it.
 *
 * Alice only needs Bob's public key, the nonce and the ciphertext.
 * Bob should never ever share his secret key, even with Alice.
 *
 * And in order to send messages to Alice, Bob only needs Alice's
 * public key. Alice should never ever share her secret key either,
 * even with Bob.
 *
 * Alice can reply to Bob using the same system, without having to
 * generate a distinct key pair.
 *
 * The nonce doesn't have to be confidential, but it should be used
 * with just one invokation of crypto_box_open_easy() for a
 * particular pair of public and secret keys.
 *
 * One easy way to generate a nonce is to use randombytes_buf(),
 * considering the size of nonces the risk of any random collisions
 * is negligible. For some applications, if you wish to use nonces to
 * detect missing messages or to ignore replayed messages, it is also
 * ok to use a simple incrementing counter as a nonce.
 *
 * When doing so you must ensure that the same value can never be
 * re-used (for example you may have multiple threads or even hosts
 * generating messages using the same key pairs).
 *
 * This system provides mutual authentication. However, a typical use
 * case is to secure communications between a server, whose public
 * key is known in advance, and clients connecting anonymously.
