    string $ciphertext,
    string $additional_data,
    string $nonce,
    #[\SensitiveParameter] string $key
): string|false

Verify then decrypt with AES-256-GCM. Only available if sodium_crypto_aead_aes256gcm_is_available() returns true.

ciphertext: Must be in the format provided by sodium_crypto_aead_aes256gcm_encrypt() (ciphertext and tag, concatenated).
