Description
We can add a parameter per crypto-algorithms in the list for use parameter for the key name in DictionaryEntry[] in the SPDX document.
ex.
for AES
parameter:
- KeySize: This is the key size of algorithm
- Mode: ex , ECB,CBC,OFB,CFB,wrap,GCM,CCM,wrap-pad

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing DictionaryEntry[] entries in the SPDX document and compare how cryptographic algorithms are currently represented. Clarify which parameter keys are needed for each algorithm, using AES and its KeySize and Mode examples as a reference. Done means the parameter list is consistently defined across the affected algorithms.
