We already have QCryptoHashAlgorithm and I don't see the
benefit in duplicating it here.

We don't have md2, md3, and md4 in QCryptoHashAlgorithm, but
that doesn't look like a real negative as I can't imagine
those should be used today.

Our naming convention is  'XXX-alg' rather than 'XXX-algo'.

Having these two structs standalone looks wrong to me. I suspect that
callers will need to be able to conditionally pass in either one, and
so require the API to use a discriminated union

  { 'union': 'QCryptoAkCipherOptions'
    'base': { 'algorithm': 'QCryptoAkCipherAlgorithm' },
    'discriminator': 'algorithm',
    'data': { 'rsa': 'QCryptoAkCipherOptionsRSA' ,
              'ecdsa': 'QCryptoAkCipherOptionsECDSA' } }


With regards,
Daniel
