* The key is built up as follows:

* - Fetch 6-8 MAC bytes and overwrite the first 6-8 bytes of the key with this info
*
* When flash encryption is disabled:
* Without the MAC data, an attack would look like this:
* - Retrieve all the partitions from the ESP32
* - Read the key from NVS flash
* - Use the key to decrypt
* With the MAC data added, an attacker would have to do much more:
* - Retrieve all the partitions from the ESP32 (copy app)
* - Upload custom app to retrieve internal MAC
* - Read the key from NVS flash
* - Re-flash original app and combine it with the MAC
* - Use the key to decrypt
* - Re-flash the device with original firmware.
*
* Adding the MAC doesn't add a lot of extra security, but I think it's worth it.
*
* @param[out] key the output key
