agecrypt: File Encryption with the 'age' Format
An idiomatic R interface to the 'age' file encryption format
(<https://age-encryption.org/v1>), backed by a vendored copy of the
'agec' C implementation (<https://git.sr.ht/~min/agec>). Encrypt and
decrypt raw vectors, files, and strings for one or more X25519 recipients
or with a passphrase, with optional ASCII armor. Cryptography is vendored
and randomness is drawn from the operating system, so the package has no
external library dependencies.
