/**
 * Classic McEliece is a Code-Based KEM. It is a round 4 candidate in NIST's PQC competition.
 * It is endorsed by the German Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) for its conservative security
 * assumptions and a corresponding draft for an ISO standard has been prepared. Both NIST and ISO parameter
 * sets are implemented here. See https://classic.mceliece.org/ for the specifications and other details.
 *
 * Advantages of Classic McEliece:
 * - Conservative post-quantum security assumptions
 * - Very fast encapsulation
 * - Fast decapsulation
 *
 * Disadvantages of Classic McEliece:
 * - Very large public keys (0.26 MB - 1.36 MB)
 * - Relatively slow key generation
 * - Algorithm is complex and hard to implement side-channel resistant
