Field Types
===========
AlgorithmType - string, for example "Signature", "AsymmetricCipher",
"SymmetricCipher", "MAC", "MessageDigest", or "KeyFactory"
"SymmetricCipher", "MAC", "MessageDigest", or "KeyFactory"
Name - string, an algorithm name from SCAN
Test - string, identifies the test to run
Source - string, text explaining where the test data came from
Comment - string, other comments about the test data
KeyFormat - string, specifies the key format. "Component" here means
each component of the key or key pair is specified separately as a name,
value pair, with the names depending on the algorithm being tested.
Otherwise the value names "Key", or "PublicKey" and "PrivateKey" are
used.
