Interface KeyGenerator<GenerateKeyInput, GenerateKeyOutput>

The KeyGenerator interface provides a method for cryptographic key generation. It includes the generateKey() method to produce keys for cryptographic operations, supporting various algorithms and configurations. This interface is adaptable to different key generation requirements and can produce keys in formats such as JWK.

The method returns a Promise that resolves to the generated key in the specified format.
