I had to replace the HKDF with the KDF in X9.63 (see #23) because PKI.js doesn't support HKDF.

We should propose a PR to PKI.js to support HKDF and then require it in the protocol suite, demoting the X9.63 KDF to a recommendation,

The JVM implementation is ready to use HKDF because Bouncy Castle already supports it.
