      Add a new section named "Key Algorithms" with known standard key algorithm names. The names can be collected from the sections of key generators and factories.

      Especially, add "Generic" as the key for KEM/KeyAgreement output and KDF inputs. Talk about its relation with PKCS11 CKK_GENERIC_SECRET type.

      Also, while JDK providers uses XDH as the algorithm name of X25519, add a note that "some third party providers may use the non-standard name like the parameter set name". This also applies to EdDSA, ML-KEM, and ML-DSA.
