The GCM cipher mode of operation (in common with other counter-based modes of operation) has a notion of blocksize that does not neatly fall into our current abstraction: it does operate in 16-byte blocks but allows for an arbitrary overall data length (i.e. the final block may be incomplete). Model this by adding a concept of alignment size. Each call to encrypt() or decrypt() must begin at a multiple of the alignment size from the start of the data stream. This allows us to model GCM by using a block size of 1 byte and an alignment size of 16 bytes. As a side benefit, this same concept allows us to neatly model the fact that raw AES can encrypt only a single 16-byte block, by specifying an alignment size of zero on this cipher.
