[PATCH v4 01/12] crypto: ecdsa - Convert byte arrays with key coordinates to digits

From: Stefan Berger
Date: Thu Feb 29 2024 - 21:22:18 EST


For NIST P192/256/384 the public key's x and y parameters could be copied
directly from a given array since both parameters filled 'ndigits' of
digits (a 'digit' is a u64). For support of NIST P521 the key parameters
need to have leading zeros prepended to the most significant digit since
only 2 bytes of the most significant digit are provided.

Therefore, implement ecc_digits_from_bytes to convert a byte array into an
array of digits and use this function in ecdsa_set_pub_key where an input
byte array needs to be converted into digits.
