   * Zeroize several intermediate variables used to calculate the expected
     value when verifying a MAC or AEAD tag. This hardens the library in
     case the value leaks through a memory disclosure vulnerability. For
     example, a memory disclosure vulnerability could have allowed a
     man-in-the-middle to inject fake ciphertext into a DTLS connection.
