keystore-idb

Replace current default algorithm AES-CTR with AES-GCM.

We could fix this now that #58 landed

👍 And bump version to 1.0?

I have some ideas for a "release" 1.0. E.g. I want the store to be abstracted, so that you can use keystore-idb (which at that point will be confusingly named) in nodejs.

Also, I think we can greatly reduce the API surface, because I don't think we're actually using the symmetric key store from keystore-idb anywhere. We're only using the AES helper methods (encryptBytes/decryptBytes).

Not a high priority right now though.

That'd be cool yeah. Where is that symmetric key store? But, it looks like we're using everything that's in aes/*.js.

Ah, I'm actually wrong. I was talking about this: https://github.com/fission-suite/keystore-idb/blob/main/src/keystore/base.ts#L28

But we're actually using the keystore for symmetric keys: We're mainly using exportSymmKey and importSymmKey. My bad :)

Anyway, I still think a good abstraction over localforage in keystore-idb would be great. Probably best to copy the one from webnative into here, and use it from webnative.

If we have that, there's no reason for the dependency injection stuff we have in webnative (keystore-idb would work in nodejs with an appropriate localforage implementation).
