I de-merged this because I'm not sure if we really want to have the same hard limit for ChaCha as for GCM.

I included limitations on the amount of data to send, for AES-GCM and ChaCha20-Poly1305. We don't seem to have rekeying capabilities in this branch, but some editing should fix that.
Include data volume limitations
under one set of keys. For the AES-GCM ciphersuites this limit is
2^36 bytes. For ChaCha20-Poly1305 this limit is larger then the size of the
nonce, and so does not matter. Implementations MUST NOT transmit more than
2^36 bytes (64 GiB) encrypted under a single key and MUST rekey (See {{key-update}}
