Detailed Description

The normalized public identity used by ascii-chat's crypto and key-management code.

type records whether the key came from Ed25519, X25519, or GPG. key always holds the normalized 32-byte public value used by the protocol, and comment preserves the optional human-readable label from the source key.

Note

Key size: Always 32 bytes (simplifies protocol and key management)

Comment: Optional label for the key (max 256 chars including null terminator)

Conversion: Ed25519 and GPG keys are converted to X25519 for key exchange
