Avoids using the first block for two different purposes, and will be more consistent with the AES-based version. This breaks backwards compatibility, but better do it now that most distro are still shipping < 1.0.14, that no applications seem to be already using that new API, and that there will be an update to the library major due to the aes128ctr removal.
Sodium is a new, easy-to-use software library for encryption, decryption, signatures, password hashing and more.
It is a portable, cross-compilable, installable, packageable fork of NaCl, with a compatible API, and an extended API to improve usability even further.
Its goal is to provide all of the core operations needed to build higher-level cryptographic tools.
Sodium supports a variety of compilers and operating systems, including Windows (with MingW or Visual Studio, x86 and x64), iOS and Android.
