Fix GCM IV size at 96 bits #18

Closed selfissued closed 8 years ago

selfissued commented 9 years ago

NIST SP 800-38D, which defines GCM, states: “For IVs, it is recommended that implementations restrict support to the length of 96 bits, to promote interoperability, efficiency, and simplicity of design.” Please add this restriction to the description of how COSE uses GCM in Section 10.1 (AES GCM).
