Description
The current library only supports encryption and decryption using RSA keys, via the OAEP algorithm. Coverage should be expanded to support elliptic curve (EC) keys as well.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading the existing RSA/OAEP encryption and decryption implementation and its tests. Determine how the library represents and dispatches key types, then define the expected EC-key behavior and add coverage for successful encryption and decryption before considering the work complete.
