Unfortunately reusing the new function from the signed constant time
comparison is not trivial.
One option would be to do temporary conditional swaps which would prevent
qualifying input to const. Another way would be to add an additional
flag for the sign and make it an integral part of the computation, which
would defeat the purpose of having an unsigned core comparison.
Going with two separate function for now and the signed version can be
retired/compiled out with the legacy API eventually.
The new function in theory could be placed into either
`library/constant_time.c` or `library/bignum_new.c`. Going with the
first as the other functions in the second are not constant time yet and
this distinction seems more valuable for new (as opposed to belonging to
the `_core` functions.

- We don't check for NULL pointers this deep in the library
- Accessing a NULL pointer when the limb number is 0 as a mistake is the
very similar to any other out of bounds access
- We could potentially mandate at least 1 limb representation for 0 but
we either would need to enforce it or the implementation would be less
robust.
- Allowing zero limb representation - (NULL, 0) in particular - for zero
is present in the legacy interface, if we disallow it, the
compatibility code will need to deal with this (more code size and
opportunities for mistakes)
In summary, interpreting (NULL, 0) as the number zero in the core
interface is the least of the two evils.

The test case where there were extra limbs in the MPI failed and this
commit contains the corresponding fix as well. (We used to use the
minimum required limbs instead of the actual limbs present.)

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).

Fix mbedtls_mpi_mul_mpi() when one of the operands is zero and the
other is negative. The sign of the result must be 1, since some

Similarly to "Overhaul testing of mbedtls_mpi_copy", simplify the code
to test mbedtls_mpi_swap to have just one function for distinct MPIs
and one function for swapping an MPI with itself, covering all cases
of size (0, 1, >1) and sign (>0, <0).
The test cases are exactly the same as for mbedtls_mpi_copy with the
following replacements:
* `Copy` -> `Swap`
* ` to ` -> ` with `
* `_copy` -> `_swap`

Replace the two test functions mbedtls_mpi_copy_sint (supporting signed
inputs but always with exactly one limb) and mbedtls_mpi_copy_binary
(supporting arbitrary-sized inputs but not negative inputs) by a single
function that supports both arbitrary-sized inputs and arbitrary-signed
inputs. This will allows testing combinations like negative source and
zero-sized destination.
Also generalize mpi_copy_self to support arbitrary inputs.
Generate a new list of test cases systematically enumerating all
possibilities among various categories: zero with 0 or 1 limb, negative or
positive with 1 limb, negative or positive with >1 limb. I used the
following Perl script:
```
sub rhs { $_ = $_[0]; s/bead/beef/; s/ca5cadedb01dfaceacc01ade/face1e55ca11ab1ecab005e5/; $_ }
%v = (
"zero (null)" => "",
"zero (1 limb)" => "0",
"small positive" => "bead",
"large positive" => "ca5cadedb01dfaceacc01ade",
"small negative" => "-bead",
"large negative" => "-ca5cadedb01dfaceacc01ade",
);
foreach $s (sort keys %v) {
foreach $d (sort keys %v) {
printf "Copy %s to %s\nmbedtls_mpi_copy:\"%s\":\"%s\"\n\n",
$s, $d, $v{$s}, rhs($v{$d});
}
}
foreach $s (sort keys %v) {
printf "Copy self: %s\nmpi_copy_self:\"%s\"\n\n", $s, $v{$s};
}

Add unit tests for mbedtls_mpi_fill_random() and mbedtls_mpi_random()
when the resulting MPI object previously had a nonzero value. I wrote
those to catch a bug that I introduced during the development of
mbedtls_mpi_random() (but does not appear in a committed version).
Signed-off-by: Gilles Peskine <Gilles.Peskine@arm.com>
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.

Since mbedtls_mpi_random() is not specific to ECC code, move it from
the ECP module to the bignum module.
This increases the code size in builds without short Weierstrass
curves (including builds without ECC at all) that do not optimize out
unused functions.

In two test cases, the exponentiation computation was not being fully tested
as when A_bytes (the base) == N_bytes (the modulus) -> A = N. When this is the
case A is reduced to 0 and therefore the result of the computation will always
be 0.
This fixes that issue and therefore increases the test coverage to ensure
different computations are actually being run.
