/**
* @file skein_api.h
* @brief A Skein API and its functions.
* @{
*
* This API and the functions that implement this API simplify the usage
* of Skein. The design and the way to use the functions follow the openSSL
* design but at the same time take care of some Skein specific behaviour
* and possibilities.
*
* The functions enable applications to create a normal Skein hashes and
* message authentication codes (MAC).
*
* Using these functions is simple and straight forward:
*
* @code
*
* #include "skein_api.h"
*
* ...
* struct skein_ctx ctx; // a Skein hash or MAC context
*
* // prepare context, here for a Skein with a state size of 512 bits.
* skein_ctx_prepare(&ctx, SKEIN_512);
*
* // Initialize the context to set the requested hash length in bits
* // here request a output hash size of 31 bits (Skein supports variable
* // output sizes even very strange sizes)
* skein_init(&ctx, 31);
*
* // Now update Skein with any number of message bits. A function that
* // takes a number of bytes is also available.
* skein_update_bits(&ctx, message, msg_length);
*
* // Now get the result of the Skein hash. The output buffer must be
* // large enough to hold the request number of output bits. The application
* // may now extract the bits.
* skein_final(&ctx, result);
* ...
* @endcode
*
* An application may use @c skein_reset to reset a Skein context and use
* it for creation of another hash with the same Skein state size and output
* bit length. In this case the API implementation restores some internal
* internal state data and saves a full Skein initialization round.
*
* To create a MAC the application just uses @c skein_mac_init instead of
* @c skein_init. All other functions calls remain the same.
*
