Add "AESGCM" support for older, still heavily used #3

Closed jrconlin closed 5 years ago

jrconlin commented 5 years ago

There are a depressingly large number of messages still using the old "aesgcm" encoding type. While it's probably not a hard requirement to support the deprecated standard, and I've reached out to many of the core library authors, we don't really have a way for the UA to report back the formats of encryption that it supports and not supporting the format could lead to a bad user experience.
