Migrate to Tink #57

Closed overheadhunter closed 3 years ago

overheadhunter commented 5 years ago

Since Tink now offers high-level APIs for various operations, including AES-SIV and AES-GCM, we should consider replacing CryptoLib with Tink.

This way we will profit from any upstream updates, security audits and have a common API for Java ~and ObjC.~ Edit: ObjC-Support will not happen in the near future due to limitations in Tink for ObjC/Swift (see https://github.com/google/tink/issues/353).

For the aforementioned reasons this will probably not happen in the foreseeable future.
