Hi @zarqman, could you please split the pull request into two smaller ones? These are really two different features, and while the first looks ok to me, the second may be open to some more discussion and review. Good job 👍 |

This change adds 2 related things:
Allows arbitrary headers to be added during encryption. This allows any variety of things, including (but not limited to) any of the various key-identifying headers defined in the JWE spec.
Allows a block to be given to dynamically determine what key to use during decryption. The block is given the headers, allowing use of whatever key-identifying header may have been set during encryption. The implementation of this is very similar to dynamic key detection in ruby-jwt, making it easy to use both.
An example has been added to the README which should explain how to use both together.
