//! Message authentication.
//!
//! # Use case:
//! `orion::auth` can be used to ensure message integrity and authenticity by
//! using a secret key.
//!
//! An example of this could be securing APIs by having a user of a given API
//! sign their API request and having the API server verify these signed API
//! requests.
//!
//! # About:
//! - Uses BLAKE2b-256 in keyed mode.
//!
//! # Parameters:
//! - `secret_key`: Secret key used to authenticate `data`.
//! - `data`: Data to be authenticated.
//! - `expected`: The expected authentication [`Tag`].
//!
//! # Errors:
//! An error will be returned if:
//! - The calculated [`Tag`] does not match the expected.
//! - The [`SecretKey`] supplied is less than 32 bytes or greater than 64 bytes.
//! - The expected [`Tag`] is not 32 bytes when verifying.
//!
//! # Panics:
//! A panic will occur if:
//! - More than 2*(2^64-1) bytes of data are authenticated.
//!
//! # Security:
//! - The secret key should always be generated using a CSPRNG.
//!   [`SecretKey::generate()`] can be used for
//!   this; it will generate a [`SecretKey`] of 32 bytes.
//! - The required minimum length for a [`SecretKey`] is 32 bytes.
//!
//! # Example:
//! ```rust
//! use orion::auth;
//!
//! // There exists a shared key between the user and API server
//! let key = auth::SecretKey::generate()?;
//!
//! // User generates message and authentication tag
//! let msg = "Some message.".as_bytes();
//! let expected_tag = auth::authenticate(&key, msg)?;
//!
//! // API server verifies the authenticity of the message with the tag
//! assert!(auth::authenticate_verify(&expected_tag, &key, &msg).is_ok());
//! # Ok::<(), orion::errors::UnknownCryptoError>(())
//! ```
