Description

From my cursory testing the WebCryptoAPI interface and algorithm implementations are not even remotely correct.

There are too many issues to enumerate and open individual issues for. To that end, please consider enabling the WebCryptoAPI Web Platform Tests to bring the llrt SubtleCrypto implementation up to par with existing implementations

This conformance to spec is crucial for popular JWT modules, such as jose, that depend on WebCryptoAPI to work.
