brontide/noise: add Flush method
This commit adds a Flush method to the brontide.Machine, which can write
out a buffered message to an io.Writer. This is a preliminary change
which will allow the encryption of the plaintext to be done in a
distinct method from actually writing the bytes to the wire.

brontide

Build Status MIT licensed GoDoc

The brontide package implements a secure crypto messaging protocol based off of the Noise Protocol Framework. The package exposes the raw state machine that handles the handshake and subsequent message encryption/decryption scheme. Additionally, the package exposes a net.Conn and a net.Listener interface implementation which allows the encrypted transport to be seamlessly integrated into a codebase.

The secure messaging scheme implemented within this package is described in detail in BOLT #8 of the Lightning Network specifications.

This package has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing secure encrypted+authenticated communications between network enabled programs.
