Pull request overview
This PR adds support for the AES-CTR-HMAC-SHA1-96 cipher suite pattern to the CycloneDX Cryptography Registry, addressing issue #770. This is an IPsec ESP-style authenticated encryption suite combining AES Counter mode with HMAC-SHA1 authentication using 96-bit tags.
Changes:
- Added new AES variant pattern
AES[-(128|192|256)]-CTR-HMAC-SHA1[-96]with primitive typeae(authenticated encryption) - Added RFC 3686 as the standard reference with appropriate DOI URL
