// Get an SHA1 digest (as a hex string) of the secret key.
// A SHA1 digest is 20 bytes.  Therefore the hex string is 40 chars.
// Treat each us-ascii char as a binary byte of the secret key.
// 256-bit AES needs a 256-bit key, which is 32-bytes.  Therefore
// use the 1st 32 us-ascii chars of the hex SHA1 as the AES secret key.
