I tend to agree and that's how I would write a new API today, but this is
what we have had for years. I am guessing the behavior came from the C
implementation (FreeBSD).
Mark, any further thoughts?
We do not have a concensus atm.

I still think the input byte array should not be cleared, period.
Clearing is a separate operation that should be performed by the
caller.

Git master now documents the existing clearing behavior as suggested by
Mark in https://lists.apache.org/thread/cyrpgsqx4lnjlsf3frqwfo5pvbmpcycr
Next, is how to document or change Crypt.crypt(byte[], String): The method
clears
