// An interface for streaming authenticated encryption with associated data.
// Streaming encryption is typically used for encrypting large plaintexts such
// as large files.  Tink may eventually contain multiple interfaces for
// streaming encryption depending on the supported properties. This interface
// supports a streaming interface for symmetric encryption with
// authentication. The underlying encryption modes are selected so that partial
// plaintext can be obtained fast by decrypting and authenticating just a part
// of the ciphertext.

  // Returns a wrapper around 'ciphertext_destination', such that any bytes
  // written via the wrapper are AEAD-encrypted using 'associated_data' as
  // associated authenticated data. The associated data is not included in the
  // ciphertext and has to be passed in as parameter for decryption.
  // ByteCount() of the wrapper returns the number of written plaintext bytes.
  // Closing the wrapper results in closing of the wrapped stream.
