I was hoping that IDE auto-completion would eliminate the need to type the full 
name. Adding `KEM` at the beginning could amend the type-unsafety of current 
algorithm identifiers -- it somehow prevents putting a KDF id as the first 
argument of an `of` call accidentally. Maybe that is just my wishful thinking?

Also, there will be KEM names like "X_WING" in the future.

I've also thought about defining `enum`s for the three types of algorithm 
identifiers to finally solve the type-unsafety issue. However, I hesitate to 
add them since it's such a think layer and users who need it can easily create 
their own.
