Truncate ciphertext buffer to actual size during file encryption
The ciphertext for AES CTR is exactly as large as the plaintext (not necessarily a multiple of the blocksize!). By truncating the ciphertext, we do not send bytes that will be decrypted to gibberish. As a side node, we probably do not need to initialize the ciphertext buffer larger than the plaintext size at all, but the OpenSSL docs are a bit vague about that.
