ECDSA P-384 with SHA-384 and RFC 6979 #4

Closed soatok closed 1 month ago

I had considered adding support for one of the NIST curves in order to make CNSA 1.0 and/or FIPS development easier, but I've decided against that. Ed25519 is now in FIPS 186-5, so we don't need to bend over backwards to support government users.

I'm writing this down as an issue to capture my decision. If anyone has a strong reason why I should reconsider, please comment below.
