//! Module implementing the cryptographic part of a [`SecureChannel`].
//!
//! This implements an abstraction over the secure channel provided by
//! vodozemac. As [MSC4108] evolved, the underlying cryptographic primitives
//! have changed from ECIES to [HPKE]. Since QR code login has shipped in some
//! clients before the MSC got approved and merged into the spec, we're in the
//! unlucky position of having to support both cryptographic channels for a
//! while.
//!
//! This module allows this backwards compatibility and adds a bit of
//! cryptographic agility for the time when we will have to support post-quanum
//! safe HPKE variants.
//!
//! [HPKE]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9180.html
//! [MSC4108]: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/4108
