/**
 * Represents a function to derive a key.
 *
 * Tink Key Derivation is given by the primitive which maps a {@code byte[] salt} to a Keyset.
 * For each key, a {@link KeyDerivationKey} maps a {@code byte[] salt} to a new "derived" {@code
 * Key}. For a Keyset containing multiple derivation keys, the derived keyset is obtained by mapping
 * each key according to this map (for the same {@code byte[] salt}), and inserting them into a new
 * keyset.
