Description
Add an option for users to have a pre-shared key (how the key will be shared is up to them) to add quantum resistant encryption. It should also be possible to add the symmetric key at a later time (e.g. two users begin to chat normally, then they meet in person and they add a symmetric key to add post-quantum resistance to all future messages/calls
