It is used as part of swap, but the library never caused any proguard issues
and there is no reason to think it should. The issues came from zipsigner and
its use of spongycastle.
These keeps are to keep swap working, which depends on libraries that use
reflection and other stuff that proguard breaks. libsuperuser is not used by
swap though, and doesn't have those issues.
The NetCipher library creates instances of HttpURLConnection that are
configured to have solid TLS protocol and cipher settings, especially on
older versions of Android.

This stops the stripping of classes required for the swap stuff. proguard
strips all sorts of stuff that is needed because of things like dynamic
loading, reflection, etc.
