/// An error with absolutely no details.
///
/// *aws-lc-rs* uses this unit type as the error type in most of its results
/// because (a) usually the specific reasons for a failure are obvious or are
/// not useful to know, and/or (b) providing more details about a failure might
/// provide a dangerous side channel, and/or (c) it greatly simplifies the
/// error handling logic.
///
/// `Result<T, aws_lc_rs::error::Unspecified>` is mostly equivalent to
/// `Result<T, ()>`. However, `aws_lc_rs::error::Unspecified` implements
/// [`std::error::Error`] and users can implement
/// `From<error::Unspecified>` to map this to their own error types, as
/// described in [“Error Handling” in the Rust Book](https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch09-00-error-handling.html):
///
/// ```
/// use aws_lc_rs::rand::{self, SecureRandom};
///
/// enum Error {
///     CryptoError,
///
///     IOError(std::io::Error),
///     // [...]
/// }
///
/// impl From<aws_lc_rs::error::Unspecified> for Error {
///     fn from(_: aws_lc_rs::error::Unspecified) -> Self {
///         Error::CryptoError
///     }
/// }
///
/// fn eight_random_bytes() -> Result<[u8; 8], Error> {
///     let rng = rand::SystemRandom::new();
///     let mut bytes = [0; 8];
///
///     // The `From<aws_lc_rs::error::Unspecified>` implementation above makes this
///     // equivalent to
///     // `rng.fill(&mut bytes).map_err(|_| Error::CryptoError)?`.
///     rng.fill(&mut bytes)?;
///
///     Ok(bytes)
/// }
///
/// assert!(eight_random_bytes().is_ok());
/// ```
///
/// Experience with using and implementing other crypto libraries like has
/// shown that sophisticated error reporting facilities often cause significant
/// bugs themselves, both within the crypto library and within users of the
/// crypto library. This approach attempts to minimize complexity in the hopes
/// of avoiding such problems. In some cases, this approach may be too extreme,
/// and it may be important for an operation to provide some details about the
/// cause of a failure. Users of *aws-lc-rs* are encouraged to report such cases so
/// that they can be addressed individually.

/// Here is an incomplete list of reasons a key may be unsupported:
///
/// * Invalid or Inconsistent Components: A component of the key has an invalid
///   value, or the mathematical relationship between two (or more) components
///   required for a valid key does not hold.
///
/// * The encoding of the key is invalid. Perhaps the key isn't in the correct
///   format; e.g. it may be Base64 ("PEM") encoded, in which case   the Base64
///   encoding needs to be undone first.
///
/// * The encoding includes a versioning mechanism and that mechanism indicates
///   that the key is encoded in a version of the encoding that isn't supported.
///   This might happen for multi-prime RSA keys (keys with more than two
///   private   prime factors), which aren't supported, for example.
///
/// * Too small or too Large: One of the primary components of the key is too
///   small or two large. Too-small keys are rejected for security reasons. Some
///   unnecessarily large keys are rejected for performance reasons.
///
///  * Wrong algorithm: The key is not valid for the algorithm in which it was
///    being used.
///
///  * Unexpected errors: Report this as a bug.
