I wonder if we should mark this program as "experimental" or "not
audited?" It includes the features I'd like to have in a tool for
signing and authenticated encryption, but it hasn't received much
cryptanalytic attention, from what I can tell.
* gnu/packages/crypto.scm (asignify): New variable.

+with zero external dependencies. Asignify can verify OpenBSD signatures, but it
+cannot sign messages in OpenBSD format yet.")

asignify appears to embed tweetnacl and blake2. Is that a concern?

Tweetnacl is intended to be embedded: "TweetNaCl is a self-contained
public-domain C library, so it can easily be integrated into
applications."
https://tweetnacl.cr.yp.to/
BLAKE2 is designed in a similar way, although they also offer a "full"
package with a build system, libb2. Looking at the list of users on
their web site, we already have lots of packages that embed BLAKE2. From
what I can tell, asignify doesn't use libb2.
