    // Abstract base for a handle that can be either HCRYPTPROV or NCRYPT_KEY_HANDLE. The CNG api NCryptIsKeyHandle() determines which it is.
    //
    // Unfortunately, NCryptIsKeyHandle() is a prohibited api on UWP. This means that packages that want to run on both UWP and non-UWP must
    // use #if's to avoid declaring a P/Invoke for NCryptIsKeyHandle(). They must also be very careful never to allow a HCRYPTPROV to leak into this
    // since on UWP, SafeProvOrNCryptKeyHandle will use the wrong Windows api to "free" the handle, leading to unpredictable, but probably bad, results.
    //
    // Because of this, we only provide the abstract base class. The most appropriate implementation is up to the package to choose.
