- Replace Crypto files with CryptoInterface which uses BearSSL as a cryptographic backend.

- Move cryptographic functions from JsonTranslator to CryptoInterface.

- Make AP activation separate from FloodingMesh::begin().

- Fix English bug.

- Improve comments.

+   This example makes every node broadcast their AP MAC to the rest of the network during the first 28 seconds, as long as the node thinks it has the highest AP MAC in the network.
+   Once 28 seconds have passed, the node that has the highest AP MAC will start broadcasting benchmark messages, which will allow you to see how many messages are lost at the other nodes.
+   If you have an onboard LED on your ESP8266 it is recommended that you change the useLED variable below to true.
+   That way you will get instant confirmation of the mesh communication without checking the Serial Monitor.
