Compilers are likely to generate shorter assembly for loops of the
form `while( cnt-- ) { ... }` rather than
`for( ; count >= X; count -= X ) { ... }`. (E.g. the latter needs
a subtract+compare+branch after each loop, while the former only
needs decrement+branch).

A previous commit has changed the signature of mpi_mul_hlp, making the length

It also fixes a comment on the required size of the temporary value

A previous commit has changed the signature of mpi_mul_hlp(), making
the length of the output explicit.
This commit adjusts mbedtls_mpi_mul_int() to this change.
Along the way, we make the code simpler and more secure by not calculating
the minimal limb-size of A. A previous comment indicated that this was
functionally necessary because of the implementation of mpi_mul_hlp() --
if it ever was, it isn't anymore.

The previous commit has changed the signature of mpi_mul_hlp(),
making the length of the output explicit.
This commit adjusts the call-site in mbedtls_mpi_mul_mpi() to
this new signature.
A notable change to the multiplication strategy had to be made:
mbedtls_mpi_mul_mpi() performs a simple row-wise schoolbook
multiplication, which however was so far computed iterating
rows from top to bottom. This leads to the undesirable consequence
that as lower rows are calculated and added to the temporary
result, carry chains can grow. It is simpler and faster to
iterate from bottom to top instead, as it is guaranteed that
there will be no carry when adding the next row to the previous
temporary result: The length of the output in each iteration
can be fixed to len(B)+1.

The helper `mpi_mul_hlp()` performs a multiply-accumulate
operation `d += s * b`, where `d,b` are MPIs and `b` is a scalar.
Previously, only the length of `s` was specified, while `d` was
assumed to be 0-terminated of unspecified length.
This was leveraged at the end of the core multiplication steps
computingg the first `limb(s)` limbs of `d + s*b`: Namely, the
routine would keep on adding the current carry to `d` until none
was left. This can, in theory, run for an arbitrarily long time
if `d` has a tail of `0xFF`s, and hence the assumption of
`0`-termination.
This solution is both fragile and insecure -- the latter because
the carry-loop depends on the result of the multiplication.
This commit changes the signature of `mpi_mul_hlp()` to receive
the length of the output buffer, which must be greater or equal
to the length of the input buffer.
It is _not_ assumed that the output buffer is strictly larger
than the input buffer -- instead, the routine will simply return
any carry that's left. This will be useful in some applications
of this function. It is the responsibility of the caller to either
size the output appropriately so that no carry will be left, or
to handle the carry.
NOTE: The commit leaves the library in a state where it cannot
be compiled since the call-sites of mpi_mul_hlp() have
not yet been adjusted. This will be done in the subsequent
commits.

This commit removes code from the Montgomery multiplication routine
`mpi_montmul()` which seems to serve no purpose.
Details: `mpi_montmul()` uses a temporary storage `T` for intermediate
results which is assumed to be of twice the size as the inputs to be
multiplied, and which is used as follows: After the i-th (i=0,1,...)
iteration, the n-limb word starting at `T->p + i + 1` contains the
Montgomery multiplication of B with the limbs 0,..,i of A, and the
variable `d` points to `T->p + i + 1`. In particular, after `n` iterations,
`T->p + n` holds the full multiplication
(subject to conditional subtraction).
As a consequence of this way of using the temporary `T`, the contents
of `{T->p, ..., T->p + i}` are irrelevant after the i-th iteration. Nonetheless,
the code copies `A[i]` to `T->p[i]` at the end of the i-th iterations, which is
redundant and can be removed.

In mbedtls_mpi_read_string, if the string is empty, return an empty bignum
rather than a bignum with one limb with the value 0.
Both representations are correct, so this is not, in principle, a
user-visible change. The change does leak however through
mbedtls_mpi_write_string in base 16 (but not in other bases), as it writes a
bignum with 0 limbs as "" but a bignum with the value 0 and at least one
limb as "00".
This change makes it possible to construct an empty bignum through
mbedtls_mpi_read_string, which is especially useful to construct test
cases (a common use of mbedtls_mpi_read_string, as most formats use in
production encode numbers in binary, to be read with mbedtls_mpi_read_binary
or mbedtls_mpi_read_binary_le).

to an adversary who is capable of very fine-grained timing
measurements. This is very little information, but could be practical
with secp521r1 (1/512 chance of the leading limb being 0) if the
adversary can measure the precise timing of a large number of

In real life, min << N and the probability that mbedtls_mpi_random()
fails to find a suitable value after 30 iterations is less than one in
a billion. But at least for testing purposes, it's useful to not
outright reject "silly" small values of N, and for such values, 30
iterations is not enough to have a good probability of success.
Pick 250 iterations, which is enough for cases like (min=3, N=4), but
not for cases like (min=255, N=256).

mbedtls_mpi_random() uses mbedtls_mpi_cmp_mpi_ct(), which requires its
two arguments to have the same storage size. This was not the case
when the upper bound passed to mbedtls_mpi_random() had leading zero
limbs.
Fix this by forcing the result MPI to the desired size. Since this is
not what mbedtls_mpi_fill_random() does, don't call it from
mbedtls_mpi_random(), but instead call a new auxiliary function.
Add tests to cover this and other conditions with varying sizes for
the two arguments.

T1 is set to a 2-limb value. The first operation that takes it as
input is mbedtls_mpi_mul_int, which makes it grow to 3 limbs. Later it
is shifted left, which causes it to grow again. Set its size to the
final size from the start. This saves two calls to calloc(), at the
expense of a slowdown in some operations involving T1 as input since
it now has more leading zeros.
Setting T1 to 3 limbs initially instead of 2 saves about 6% of the
calloc() calls in test_suite_ecp and does not incur a performance
penalty. Setting T1 to A->n + 2 limbs instead of 2 saves about 20% of
the calloc calls and does not cause a measurable performance
difference on my Linux PC.
