-----------------------------+-----------------
 Tor has a bunch of crypto use throughout its design: link encryption
 (nist-style tls), relay identities (1024-bit rsa, soon to be ed25519),
 circuit handshakes (ntor, but we still support tap), cell crypto (aes),
 onion service identities (1024-bit rsa, but soon to be this complicated
 thing), and probably a few more.

 People keep misunderstanding where we are in the crypto migration plan
 ("omg tor still uses 1024-bit rsa"). It would be nice to have it all
 written out in one place that we can reference.
