This is part of a push to support larger files. The focus is the switch
to using Uint8Array to store binary data. But also includes:
- When running on Node, use Buffer.from() for hex string conversions.
- To avoid large buffer copy, signedMsg as been replaced by an object
containing iv, encrypted, and hmac.
- hmac calculation has changed so it avoids copying (possibly very
large) encrypted data. See signDigest() in lib/codec.js.
- Minor cleanup
Handling hex encode/decode at the input/output boundaries and using
Uint8Array internally for representing binary data has these benefits:
- More memory efficient, allows processing of 2x larger files.
- Aligns with cryptographic best practices: hashing is now performed
on raw binary data (Uint8Array) instead of hex strings.
- Behavior is (mostly) unchanged
- scripts/index_template.html textContent is not implemented and
needs to be redesigned.
