Summary: bare-bones Ed25519 public key signing/verification system

Description: 

This module implements Ed25519 public key generation, message signing and
verification. It is a pretty bare-bones implementation that implements
the standard Ed25519 variant with SHA512 hash, as well as a slower API
compatible with the upcoming EdDSA RFC.

The security target for Ed25519 is to be equivalent to 3000 bit RSA or
AES-128.

The advantages of Ed25519 over most other signing algorithms are:
small public/private key and signature sizes (<= 64 octets), good key
generation, signing and verification performance, no reliance on random
number generators for signing and by-design immunity against branch or
memory access pattern side-channel attacks.
