(Go) RSA Encrypt RSA/ECB/OAEPWithSHA1AndMGF1Padding

Demonstrates how to RSA encrypt using RSA/ECB/OAEPWithSHA1AndMGF1Padding. Also demonstrates RSA/ECB/OAEPWithSHA-256AndMGF1Padding. Both of these terms are from Java's JCE. Note: In this context, "ECB" doesn't actually mean anything. It's a symmetric cipher mode that doesn't apply (or make sense) in this context.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.0.0 or greater.
