[done] Encrypter
#3

I think encryption is a complex but such an essential module that it must be included in the core. Sure, there are valid and compelling reasons to use a library but not everyone has the skills/security knowhow to setup encryption properly. Much better to have it included by default and documented then allow everyone to cook up their own implementation.

You can look at the deprecation of mcrypt in PHP 7.0 as an example. There are a lot of programs that remain stuck on PHP 5.6 because no built in encryption module was provided in PHP 7.0.

Encryption should be provided by default because not everyone is a security expert.
