After P-256, here comes P-384, also known as secp384r1.
Like P-256, it is required for TLS, and is the current NIST recommendation for key exchange and signatures, for better or for worse.
Like P-256, all the finite field arithmetic has been computed and verified to be correct by fiat-crypto.
We already have a LICENSE file that covers the Zig Standard Library. We
no longer need to remind everyone that the license is MIT in every single
file.
Previously this was introduced to clarify the situation for a fork of
Zig that made Zig's LICENSE file harder to find, and replaced it with
their own license that required annual payments to their company.
However that fork now appears to be dead. So there is no need to
reinforce the copyright notice in every single file.
fiat-crypto now generates proper types, so take advantage of that.
Add mixed subtraction and double base multiplication.
We will eventually leverage mixed addition/subtraction for fixed
base multiplication. The reason we don't right now is that
precomputing the tables at comptime would take forever.
We don't use combs for the same reason. Stage2 + less function
calls in the fiat-crypto generated code will eventually address
that.
Also make the edwards25519 code consistent with these changes.
No functional changes.

Mainly I wanted Jakub's new macOS code for respecting stack size, since
we now depend on it for debug builds able to pass one of the test cases
for recursive comptime function calls with `@setEvalBranchQuota`.
The conflicts were all trivial.
Instead of multiple references to an anonymous structure to represent affine coordinates, add an actual `AffineCoordinates` structure.
Also properly handle the neutral element during coordinate conversion and fix mixed addition.
And comptime the small precomputation table for basepoint multiplication.

Master branch added `try` to a bunch of testing function calls, and some
lines also had changed how to refer to the native architecture and other
`@import("builtin")` stuff.
Functions generated by Fiat-crypto are not prefixed by their description any more. This matches an upstream change.
We can now use a single type for different curves and implementations.
The field type is now generic, so we can properly handle the base field and scalars without code duplication.
Uses verified code generated by fiat-crypto for field arithmetic, and complete formulas to avoid side channels.
There's still plenty of room for optimizations, especially with a fixed base. But this gives us a framework to easily add other similar curves.
