This is a rewrite of the x25519 code, that generalizes support for
common primitives based on the same finite field.
- Low-level operations can now be performed over the curve25519 and
edwards25519 curves, as well as the ristretto255 group.
- Ed25519 signatures have been implemented.
- X25519 is now about twice as fast.
- mem.timingSafeEqual() has been added for constant-time comparison.
Domains have been clearly separated, making it easier to later add
platform-specific implementations.
This is a translation of the [official reference implementation][1] with
few other changes. The bad news is that the reference implementation is
designed for simplicity and not speed, so there's a lot of room for
performance improvement. The good news is that, according to the crypto
benchmark, the implementation is still fast relative to the other
hashing algorithms:
