RSA encrypt a SHA256 hash with OAEP padding. Ruby

# IMPORTANT: RSA encryption is only used to encrypt small amounts of data.
# RSA is only able to encrypt data to a maximum amount of your key size (2048 bits = 256 bytes) 
# minus padding / header data (11 bytes for PKCS#1 v1.5 padding, 42 bytes for OAEP).
# As a result it is often not possible to encrypt files with RSA directly. 
# RSA is also not meant for this purpose. 
# 
# If you want to encrypt more data, you can use something like:
# 1) Generate a 256-bit random keystring K
# 2) Encrypt your data with AES-CBC with K
# 3) Encrypt K with RSA
# 4) Send both to the other side

# Note: The OAEP padding uses random bytes in the padding, and therefore each time encryption happens,
# even using the same data and key, the result will be different --  but still valid.  One should not expect
# to get the same output.
