Argon2 Key Derivation with a Secret (Pepper), AD, and Encodings

Demonstrates the optional Argon2 options for Crypt2.Argon2DeriveKey: secret (a pepper), ad (associated data), the encoding member and its per-member overrides saltEncoding/secretEncoding/adEncoding, passwordCharset, and maxMemoryKb.

//  Build the Argon2 options JSON, this time using the optional secret, ad, and encoding members.
//    secret         the RFC 9106 secret value K, often called a "pepper": a key held by the
//                   application and NOT stored with the hash, so a stolen hash database cannot be
//                   attacked without it.
//    ad             optional associated data X: additional non-secret data bound into the derivation.
//    encoding       how salt, secret, and ad are encoded (default base64).  Per-member overrides are
//                   saltEncoding, secretEncoding, and adEncoding.
//    passwordCharset  the charset the password is converted to before use (default utf-8).
//    maxMemoryKb    a guard (not an Argon2 parameter) refusing to allocate more than this many KB;
//                   default 2097152 (2 GB).
