replace the in-tree libsodium-sys from sodiumoxide on crates.io? #3

It looks like the bindings here are more complete than the in-tree version of this library that sodiumoxide is publishing. (In particular I went looking for the secretbox "easy" functions and found them here but not there.) Of course it doesn't really matter what sodiumoxide uses under the hood, but since the crates.io package is currently published from there, it would be nice to get the more complete implementation uploaded. Would it make sense for sodiumoxide to take an import from here? I'm mostly curious whether @zonyitoo and @dnaq already have a plan for something.

Well, it depends on @dnaq . This repo was built far more earlier than sodiumoxide, but sodiumoxide has more complete Rust API encapsulation. I hope this libsodium-sys could be merged into sodiumoxide, do you agree? @dnaq .
