Specifically allow the driver to override the persistency level of a
builtin key in cases where the driver is persistency-aware.

While builtin keys will often have a fixed-size context, this is not
necessarily the case, so the "get_builtin_key" entry point needs to
return the size of the actual key context.

If a random driver has a built-in entropy source and doesn't need an
external entropy source, make the driver author declare this
explicitly, rather than it being a less secure default.

The get_random entry point was allowed to return partial data on both
PSA_SUCCESS and PSA_ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_ENTROPY, but there was no
meaningful difference between the two. Keep it simple: PSA_SUCCESS is
success but can be partial, and PSA_ERROR_INSUFFICIENT_ENTROPY is an
error with no output.

Explicitly recommend that the driver accounts for environmental
conditions that can affect the amount of entropy.

A random generation driver does not need to support entropy injection.
This will limit it to platforms where the RNG peripheral is the sole
entropy source and without an RNG seed saved into persistent storage.
Signed-off-by: Gilles Peskine <Gilles.Peskine@arm.com>
If an RNG peripheral includes an entropy source, it would presumably
declare "initial_entropy_size" and "reseed_entropy_size" to be 0. In
this case, don't require the core to call "add_entropy".

The `get_entropy` entry point can be provided by multiple transparent
drivers, and the core will call all of them. But apart from that,
`get_entropy` doesn't involve an opaque key or a location, so it can
be in a transparent driver.

Transparent drivers may provide a DRBG interface through "add_entropy"
and "get_random" entry points. This interface may also be used with a
non-deterministic generator, for chips that include a TRNG.
Opaque driver may provide a "get_entropy" entry point.

Allow the core to call the "get_builtin_key" entry point to retrieve
the attributes of a built-in key. This is useful to implement
psa_get_key_attributes(), and also when the key data buffer's size
depends on the key type and size.

Having a time stamp identifying each revision of the document is
useful, but it's also a pain because it creates a conflict whenever
there are multiple pending changes at the same time. The gain isn't
worth the pain, so I'm removing the time stamp.

Rework the section describing key import, in particular to clarify key
size determination and checking. There is no intended semantic change.
Note an open question around support for implementation-specific
import formats.

Move all the PSA crypto APIs using key handles
to use key identifiers but psa_key_open() and
psa_key_close(). This is done without modifying
any test as key handles and key identifiers are
now the same.
Update the library modules using PSA crypto APIs
to get rid of key handles.
Programs and unit tests are updated to not use
key handles in subsequent commits, not in this
one.

Now that transparent drivers have an "import_key" entry point, the key
creation interfaces for transparent drivers and opaque drivers are
very similar. Unify the sections that describe their behavior,
including key validation and key size determination.

When importing a transparent key, the key needs to be not only
validated, but also possibly converted, if it is not already in the
canonical representation. So change the validate_key entry point to an
import_key entry point.

When importing a key, the code that parses the input needs to
determine the key size ("bits" attribute). This is specific to import
since other key creation methods require the caller to supply a size.
Therefore, add an extra output parameter `bits` to the "import_key"
entry point for opaque drivers. Likewise, add a `bits` output
parameter to the "validate_key" entry point for transparent drivers.

There is little point in leaving the order in which drivers are
considered unspecified. This gives flexibility to the implementation
for a process that is generally performed at build time, not in a
constrained environment. Having a well-defined order is especially
useful with fallback.
