[noise] Noise and PAKE handhakes

[david wong]

This is a good question. It has been an interest of mine and looking at integrating OPAQUE or a similar scheme in Noise has been on my list of things to do. If anyone is interested in that I'd be happy to collaborate. I'll be at RWC's Noise meeting so we can discuss this there as well :)
