/**
 * The basic visible methods of any block cipher mode.
 * <p>
 * Block ciphers encrypt plaintext in fixed size n-bit blocks. For messages
 * larger than n bits, the simplest approach is to segment the message into
 * n-bit blocks and process (encrypt and/or decrypt) each one separately
 * (Electronic Codebook or ECB mode). But this approach has disadvantages in
 * most applications. The block cipher modes of operations are one way of
 * working around those disadvantages.
 * <p>
 * A <i>Mode</i> always employs an underlying block cipher for processing its
 * input. For all intents and purposes, a <i>Mode</i> appears to behave as any
 * other block cipher with the following differences:
 * <ul>
 * <li>Depending on the specifications of the mode, the block size may be
 * different that that of the underlying cipher.</li>
 * <li>While some modes of operations allow operations on block sizes that can
 * be 1-bit long, this library will only deal with sizes that are multiple of 8
 * bits. This is because the <tt>byte</tt> is the smallest, easy to handle,
 * primitive type in Java.</li>
 * <li>Some modes need an <i>Initialisation Vector</i> (IV) to be properly
 * initialised.</li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * Possible additional initialisation values for an instance of that type are:
 * <ul>
 * <li>The block size in which to operate this mode instance. This value is
 * <b>optional</b>, if unspecified, the underlying block cipher's configured
 * block size shall be used.</li>
 * <li>Whether this mode will be used for encryption or decryption. This value
 * is <b>mandatory</b> and should be included in the initialisation parameters.
 * If it isn't, a {@link java.lang.IllegalStateException} will be thrown if any
 * method, other than <code>reset()</code> is invoked on the instance.</li>
 * <li>The byte array containing the <i>initialisation vector</i>, if required
 * by this type of mode.</li>
 * </ul>
