/**
 * This module is a simple (de)ciphering module based on the build-in
 * [crypto]{@link https://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html} node module. It performs
 * **recursive** (de)ciphering of the values of an object remaining their types.
 *
 * It is mainly based on the [crypto.createcipheriv]{@link https://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html#crypto_crypto_createcipheriv_algorithm_key_iv_options}
 * function and corrolary to the [crypto.createdecipheriv]{@link https://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html#crypto_crypto_createdecipheriv_algorithm_key_iv_options}
 * one using a randomly generated initalization vector.
 *
 * The entry point is the [cipher object factory]{@link module:json-cipher-value~factory} that creates
 * a (de)ciphering object.
 *
 * Note default settings use aes-256-crt ciphering.
 *
 * @module json-cipher-value
 * @version 3.0.1
 * @see {@link https://nodejs.org/api/crypto.html} for further information.
