#141: Concat should have it's own section

 The Concat algorithm should be defined in its own section and should have
 all of the NIST parameters defined for it so that it can just be
 referenced by any other algorithm definition that wants to use it (for
 example ECDH-SS).

 This means that there are number of things that need to be added to the
 defintions used:

 1.  Need to specify length prefixing on apu, apv, publicInfo and
 privateInfo

 2.  Need to have a nonce for the static-static case

 3.  Need to specify how to combine nonce into the apu field.

 4.  Potentially define default values for the apu and apv if not present
 and describe the restrictions that result from this.  "Sender" and
 "Receiver" are good default strings.  Restriction is that they need to be
 swapped if keys are being derived for both directions on a single key
 management operation (following messages would be done with direct).

 5.  Alg names used must have a length built into the algorithm name

 6.  APU and APV values MUST be distinct - fail concat if they are not.
