> This fix improves the exception message to better indicate when the key (and not the signature algorithm) is restricted. This change also includes a few other improvements:
> 
> - The constraints checking in `AlgorithmChecker.check()` has been improved. If the `AlgorithmConstraints` are an instance of `DisabledAlgorithmConstraints`, the internal `permits` methods are always called; otherwise the public `permits` methods are called. This makes the code easier to understand, and fixes at least one case where duplicate checks were being done.
> 
> - The above change caused some of the exception messages to be slightly different, so some tests that checked the error messages had to be updated to reflect that.
> 
> - AlgorithmDecomposer now stores the decomposed SHA algorithm names in a Map, which fixed a bug where "RSASSA-PSS" was not being restricted properly.

Sean Mullan has updated the pull request incrementally with one additional commit since the last revision:

  - Skip digest alg decomposing check for algorithms that don't contain "SHA".
  - Remove hasLoop method and fold code into decomposeName method.
