Merge branch 'master' into urandom-engine
* master: Split OpenSSL binding Fixed test for earlier exceptino Rearrange Move GCM tag size/value validation farther forward -- this makes it easier by not requiring future backends to implement the same checks expose num_locks and {get,set}_{id,locking}_callback Make the PyPy tox job consistent with the main one. THis should be a seperate PR Typo fix This page has been subsumed by the index Bump the copyright year Document compiling OpenSSL to avoid conflicts Conflicts: cryptography/hazmat/backends/openssl/backend.py

-Architecture
-============
-
-``cryptography`` has three different layers:
-
-* ``cryptography``: This package contains higher level recipes, for example
- "encrypt and then MAC". This is implemented on top of
- ``cryptography.hazmat.primitives``.
-* ``cryptography.hazmat.primitives``: This packages contains low level
- algorithms, things like ``AES`` or ``SHA1``. This is implemented on top of
- ``cryptography.hazmat.backends``.
-* ``cryptography.hazmat.backends``: This package contains bindings to low level
- cryptographic libraries. Our initial target is OpenSSL.
