In addition to the introduction of RXGK com_err codes, I also pushed a couple of commits from Mike Meffie. The first one is a reordering the discussion of auth-only, integrity protection, and encryption for packet handling, so as to match up with the order that the security levels are introduced in. There's also some clarification of how packet handling works for RXGK_AUTH, along with explicit diagrams for the get_mic input blob and the on-the-wire data. Thanks, Mike!

In f39602cbebebeb777f7e0fd1d4ac90ef4c3d3a6e Mike has "The RXGK_CLIENT_MIC_PACKET key" and "The RXGK_SERVER_MIC_PACKET key". These are not keys, they are key usage values, as noted in the original text.

Also, the second piece of artwork suggests that the MIC will be an exact multiple of 4 bytes - I don't think we actually have any such guarantee from the RFC3961 profiles, and the danger is that this suggests that the payload will be word aligned within the packet.

Attempts at fixing in:
78dad2d Use less-deceptive art for AUTH
57b0a21 Fix typo
