Description
See: https://github.com/aws/aws-encryption-sdk-java/blob/master/src/main/java/com/amazonaws/encryptionsdk/internal/FrameDecryptionHandler.java#L153
It appears that if a message has MAX_FRAME_NUMBER the decrypt will fail.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading FrameDecryptionHandler.java around line 153 and trace how the maximum frame number is handled during decryption. Reproduce or verify decryption for a message with MAX_FRAME_NUMBER frames, then confirm the boundary case succeeds or document the failure precisely.
