Added a new interface for Python 3 - see A Python interface to CryptoSys API.
Call CryptoSys API functions from your Python programs and access the functions directly from the command-line using the Python REPL.
Added support for the cipher suite ASCON which was selected as the new standard for lightweight cryptography by NIST in 2023.
This Toolkit provides Ascon authenticated encryption with associated data (AEAD) (Ascon-128 and Ascon-128a),
hashing functionality (Ascon-Hash and Ascon-Hasha),
and an extendable output function (XOF) (Ascon-Xof and Ascon-Xofa).
