/**
* A user-chosen password that can be used with password-based encryption
* (<i>PBE).
*
* <p>The password can be viewed as some kind of raw key material, from which
* the encryption mechanism that uses it derives a cryptographic key.
*
* <p>Different PBE mechanisms may consume different bits of each password
* character. For example, the PBE mechanism defined in
* <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2898.txt">
* PKCS #5</a> looks at only the low order 8 bits of each character, whereas
* PKCS #12 looks at all 16 bits of each character.
*
* <p>You convert the password characters to a PBE key by creating an
* instance of the appropriate secret-key factory. For example, a secret-key
* factory for PKCS #5 will construct a PBE key from only the low order 8 bits
* of each password character, whereas a secret-key factory for PKCS #12 will
* take all 16 bits of each character.
*
* <p>Also note that this class stores passwords as char arrays instead of
* <code>String objects (which would seem more logical), because the
* String class is immutable and there is no way to overwrite its
* internal value when the password stored in it is no longer needed. Hence,
* this class requests the password as a char array, so it can be overwritten
* when done.
