Combine is used to reverse a Split and reconstruct a secret once a `threshold` number of parts are available.
Split takes an arbitrarily long secret and generates a `parts` number of shares, `threshold` of which are required to reconstruct the secret. The parts and threshold must be at least 2, and less than 256. The returned shares are each one byte longer than the secret as they attach a tag used to reconstruct the secret.
