/**
 * This package contains cryptography interfaces for Azure SDK client libraries. These interfaces allow client
 * libraries to perform cryptographic operations using asymmetric and symmetric keys, such as encrypting, decrypting,
 * signing, verifying, wrapping, and unwrapping keys. The package also provides classes that can resolve key
 * encryption keys from a given key identifier.
 *
 * Some of the key concepts and features of the cryptography package are:
 *
 * 
 *     Async Key Encryption Key and Key Encryption Key interfaces: These interfaces define the
 *     methods for encrypting and decrypting keys, also known as key wrapping and unwrapping. They also support signing
 *     and verifying data using the configured key.
 *
 *     Async Key Encryption Key Resolver and Key Encryption Key Resolver interfaces: These
 *     interfaces define the methods for resolving key encryption keys from a given key identifier. They can be used
 *     to create instances of CryptographyClient.
