This makes all modern public keys in the standard library implement a
common interface (below) that can be used by applications for better
type safety and allows for checking that public (and private keys via
Public()) are equivalent.
interface {
Equal(crypto.PublicKey) bool
}
Equality for ECDSA keys is complicated, we take a strict interpretation
that works for all secure applications (the ones not using the
unfortunate non-constant time CurveParams implementation) and fails
closed otherwise.
Tests in separate files to make them x_tests and avoid an import loop
with crypto/x509.

Utilize KDSA when available. This guarantees constant time operation on all three curves mentioned,
and is faster than conventional assembly. The IBM Z model(s) that support KDSA as used in this CL
are not yet publicly available, and so we are unable to release performance data at this time.

Code has ended up depending on things like RSA's key generation being
deterministic given a fixed random Reader. This was never guaranteed and
would prevent us from ever changing anything about it.
This change makes certain calls randomly (based on the internal
fastrand) read an extra byte from the random Reader. This helps to
ensure that code does not depend on internal details.
I've not added this call in the key generation of ECDSA and DSA because,
in those cases, key generation is so obvious that it probably is
acceptable to do the obvious thing and not worry about code that depends
on that.
This does not affect tests that use a Reader of constant bytes (e.g. a
zeroReader) because shifting such a stream is a no-op. The stdlib uses
this internally (which is fine because it can be atomically updated if
the crypto libraries change).
It is possible that external tests could be doing the same and would
thus break if we ever, say, tweaked the way RSA key generation worked.
I feel that addressing that would be more effort than it's worth.

The code comment mixed up max and min. In this case, min is correct
because this entropy is only used to make the signature scheme
probabilistic. (I.e. if it were fixed then the scheme would still be
secure except that key.Sign(foo) would always give the same result for a
fixed key and foo.)
For this purpose, 256-bits is plenty.

The fact that crypto/ecdsa.Verify didn't reject negative inputs was a
mistake on my part: I had unsigned numbers on the brain. However, it
doesn't generally cause problems. (ModInverse results in zero, which
results in x being zero, which is rejected.)
The amd64 P-256 code will crash when given a large, negative input.
This fixes both crypto/ecdsa to reject these values and also the P-256
code to ignore the sign of inputs.

Named returned values should only be used on public funcs and methods
when it contributes to the documentation.
Named return values should not be used if they're only saving the
programmer a few lines of code inside the body of the function,
especially if that means there's stutter in the documentation or it
was only there so the programmer could use a naked return
statement. (Naked returns should not be used except in very small
functions)
This change is a manual audit & cleanup of public func signatures.
Signatures were not changed if:
* the func was private (wouldn't be in public godoc)
* the documentation referenced it
* the named return value was an interesting name. (i.e. it wasn't
simply stutter, repeating the name of the type)
There should be no changes in behavior. (At least: none intended)

cryptography with 256-bit primes"
In addition a new and improved modular inverse modulo N is

The performance measured on a Haswell based Macbook Pro shows 21X
speedup for the sign and 9X for the verify operations.
The operation BaseMult is 30X faster (and the Diffie-Hellman/ECDSA
key generation that use it are sped up as well).

ECDSA is unsafe to use if an entropy source produces predictable

This is a minimalist (in terms of patch size) solution, though
not the most parsimonious in its use of primitives:
- csprng_key = ChopMD-256(SHA2-512(priv.D||entropy||hash))
- reader = AES-256-CTR(k=csprng_key)
This, however, provides at most 128-bit collision-resistance,
so that Adv will have a term related to the number of messages
signed that is significantly worse than plain ECDSA. This does
not seem to be of any practical importance.
ChopMD-256(SHA2-512(x)) is used, rather than SHA2-256(x), for
two sets of reasons:
*Practical:* SHA2-512 has a larger state and 16 more rounds; it
is likely non-generically stronger than SHA2-256. And, AFAIK,
cryptanalysis backs this up. (E.g., [Biryukov] gives a
distinguisher on 47-round SHA2-256 with cost < 2^85.) This is
well below a reasonable security-strength target.
*Theoretical:* [Coron] and [Chang] show that Chop-MD(F(x)) is
indifferentiable from a random oracle for slightly beyond the
birthday barrier. It seems likely that this makes a generic
security proof that this construction remains UF-CMA is
possible in the indifferentiability framework.

Many thanks to Payman Mohassel for reviewing this construction;
