Docs for SERVER-39896: Write shell JS API for explicitly encrypting and decrypting data

      Description

      Description:

      Included the encrypt() and decrypt() functions outlined in the shell scope

      Engineering Ticket Description:

      Including reading and writing encrypted payload format (see Bindata SubType 6 document)

      This should be done by extending and deriving from DBClientBase a new class that implements encrypt, decrypt, and generateDataKey. The Mongo object in Javascript is just an adapter for DBClientBase so deriving a new class from it that maintains the KMS information would be the least intrusive.

      API:

          encrypt(algorithm: string, keyId: UUID, iv? : byte[]) : BinData {}
          decrypt(value: BinData) : BSON {}
