Description

We should add support to detect rc2 implementations (via constants).

Potential string:
"217, 120, 249, 196"

https://github.com/roblabla/block-ciphers/blob/b690b504e700b10ea42f9c9c6b5eca658ff2b578/rc2/src/consts.rs#L4

Research direction

Start with the RC2 constants referenced at rc2/src/consts.rs#L4 and locate the detect-crypto implementation's existing constant-based checks. Add recognition for the proposed "217, 120, 249, 196" string; done means RC2 implementations are detected.
