Description
This function will decrypt the given data using the algorithm specified by the context. For block ciphers
the ctext_len must be a multiple of the block size. For the supported ciphers the plaintext data length
will equal the ciphertext size.
Note that in AEAD ciphers, this will not check the tag. You will need to compare the tag sent with the
value returned from gnutls_cipher_tag().
