A "problem" with CryptoKit is that it is a swift-only framework, which makes using those APIs harder from C code (not impossible).

The older Security framework also contains crypto APIs, but seems to have less support for modern algorithms (e.g. no support for Curve25519). 

TBH I'm not sure if it is worthwhile to look into this in CPython, or that we should rely on OpenSSL for any integration (similar to Christian Heimes opinion on using the system keystore in the ssl module).
