This function decrypts data. Note that the length of the returned string
can in fact be longer then the unencrypted string, due to the padding of
the data.

<para>
The above example shows how to check if the data before the encryption is
the same as the data after the decryption. It is very important to
reinitialize the encryption buffer with
<function>mcrypt_generic_init</function> before you try to decrypt the
data.
</para>
<para>
The decryption handle should always be initialized with
<function>mcrypt_generic_init</function> with a key and an IV before
calling this function. Where the encryption is done, you should free the
encryption buffers by calling <function>mcrypt_generic_deinit</function>.
See <function>mcrypt_module_open</function> for an example.
