The const_random macro will now accept and generate fixed sized u8
arrays of any size. #22
Implementation detail: This patch replaces the 256 bit fixed sized sha3
hash (SHA3-256) with the sha3 eXtendable-Output Function (SHAKE256).
This is to allow
arbitrarily long byte arrays to be generated. Replacing SHA3-245 is not strictly
necessary because the tiny-keccak crate does not limit the output size of sha3
functions, but I feel that misusing crypto primitives is a code smell.
