XTEA Block Encryption Algorithm

This module provides a Python implementation of the XTEA block encryption
algorithm (http://www.cix.co.uk/~klockstone/xtea.pdf). 

The module implements the basic XTEA block encryption algortithm
(`xtea_encrypt`/`xtea_decrypt`) and also provides a higher level `crypt`
function which symmetrically encrypts/decrypts a variable length string using
XTEA in OFB mode as a key generator. The `crypt` function does not use
`xtea_decrypt` which is provided for completeness only (but can be used
to support other stream modes - eg CBC/CFB).

This module is intended to provide a simple 'privacy-grade' Python encryption
algorithm with no external dependencies. The implementation is relatively slow
and is best suited to small volumes of data. Note that the XTEA algorithm has
not been subjected to extensive analysis (though is believed to be relatively
secure - see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XTEA). For applications requiring
'real' security please use a known and well tested algorithm/implementation.

The security of the algorithm is entirely based on quality (entropy) and
secrecy of the key. You should generate the key from a known random source and
exchange using a trusted mechanism. In addition, you should always use a random
IV to seed the key generator (the IV is not sensitive and does not need to be
exchanged securely)

    >>> import os
    >>> iv = 'ABCDEFGH'
    >>> z = crypt('0123456789012345','Hello There',iv)
    >>> z.encode('hex')
    'fe196d0a40d6c222b9eff3'
    >>> crypt('0123456789012345',z,iv)
    'Hello There'
