Integer division via the "/" operator can return a float in 3.x. This causes issues in Util.number.getStrongPrime. As 2.1 does not support

- Document the expected types for functions. The cipher, the key and the input texts are byte-strings. Plaintext decodes are byte-strings currently, this needs review.
In keeping with how Python 3.x's hash functions work, the input MODE is a text string. hexdigest() returns a text string, and digest() returns a byte-string.

+- Look into LIBPATH/%LIB% and /NODEFAULTLIB:LIBCMT in setup.py for libgmp/libmpir
- Go through test cases and see which modules are not covered
- Look into exclusions in setup.py
