DeterministicAEAD is the interface for deterministic authenticated encryption with associated data.

Warning:
Unlike AEAD, implementations of this interface are not semantically secure, because
encrypting the same plaintext always yields the same ciphertext.

Security guarantees:
Implementations of this interface provide 128-bit security level against multi-user attacks
with up to 2^32 keys. That means if an adversary obtains 2^32 ciphertexts of the same message
encrypted under 2^32 keys, they need to do 2^128 computations to obtain a single key.

Encryption with associated data ensures authenticity (who the sender is) and integrity (the
data has not been tampered with) of that data, but not its secrecy.
