Bug Description
When calling Cipher.decrypt() on a memoryview or bytearray, it fails with
TypeError: argument must be read-only pinned buffer, not memoryview
I don't see any reason why decrypt shouldn't be able to work with either of these objects, so I suspect that this is just an overeager type check. As far as I understand, memoryview is actually the Python 3 equivalent of Python 2's buffer.
