Details:

The Playfair Cipher Encryption Algorithm:
The Algorithm consists of 2 steps:

1)Generate the key Square(5×5):
The key square is a 5×5 grid of alphabets that acts as the key for encrypting the plaintext. Each of the 25 alphabets must be
unique and one letter of the alphabet (usually J) is omitted from the table (as the table can hold only 25 alphabets). If the
plaintext contains J, then it is replaced by I.

 The initial alphabets in the key square are the unique alphabets of the key in the order in which they appear followed by the 
 remaining letters of the alphabet in order. 
  1. Algorithm to encrypt the plain text: The plaintext is split into pairs of two letters (digraphs). If there is an odd number of
    letters, a Z is added to the last letter.

@AdiChat Sir, I have added the PR. Please review it

@AdiChat Sir, I had sent the PR #6152 and it has been in waiting for some time now, can you please check and review it?
