The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a routine code cleanup (chore) that splits one combined ChaCha20-Poly1305 encryption/decryption class into two separate classes: one for encryption and one for decryption. It does not fix a security bug, add a new feature, or change cryptographic behavior. All existing callers are updated to use the appropriate new class. The change is purely structural and makes the API clearer.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as normal maintenance. Reviewers may optionally verify that all former `chacha20poly1305` decrypt usages now pass the expected MAC to `finish()` and that no stale imports remain.

Security signals we found

01

No security-relevant signal: refactor only

02

API split removes dual-use encrypt/decrypt state machine

03

MAC verification path still uses constant-time comparison (consteq)

04

No changes to key/nonce handling, padding, or cryptographic primitives
