It's syntactically annoying to have to use `GenericArray<u8, N>` for these types. This commit introduces a set of `GenericArray` type aliases for them instead. Notably, `Key` might benefit from having a proper struct which handles things like zeroization on drop and prevents accidental exposure in debug output, however this PR uses a simple `GenericArray` type alias for now.
