Wasted bits: HashAndSignatureAlgorithm #3

Closed MikeBishop closed 6 years ago

MikeBishop commented 8 years ago

HashAndSignatureAlgorithm is a sixteen-bit value, but allowed values are currently limited to sixteen (i.e. 4 bits). Keep the current length so we can reuse TLS-defined values, or shave? Even if we need to overflow into additional SETTINGS values someday, eight bits seems more than sufficient.

I don't think that this level of waste is worth worrying about.

Moot (for now, until we fix #12).
