Description
## Describe the defect
#834 has been closed, but the variant pattern AES[-(128|192|256)]-Wrap[-PKCS7] is unclear. PKCS7 is a symmetric padding scheme. What does the literal Wrap represent here? The variant pattern AES[-(128|192|256)][-(ECB|CBC|CFB(1|8|64|128)|OFB|CTR|XTS|CTS)][-{padding}][-{ivlen}] already covers the padding scheme. Not sure if the variant pattern AES[-(128|192|256)]-Wrap[-PKCS7] is required.
## Additional context
The issue is data-quality / naming defect in the Cryptography Registry and can be fixed without changing schema behavior or introducing new algorithms.
