Detailed Description

IETF ChaCha20 stream cipher.

This is the IETF's variant of Bernstein's ChaCha from RFC 8439. IETF ChaCha is called ChaChaTLS in the Crypto++ library. It is _slightly_ different from the Bernstein implementation. ChaCha-TLS can be used for cipher suites TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256, TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256, and TLS_DHE_RSA_WITH_CHACHA20_POLY1305_SHA256.
