Consider renaming `algorithm` or change its expected values in cryptosuites #9

We should figure out if we need to know key strength via the algorithm field in cryptosuites -- and if so, change the name of algorithm to avoid confusion with IANA algorithm names vs. curve names. Some algorithm names carry the key strength information (e.g., ES256) and others do not (e.g., EdDSA).
