This may have been a use-after-free, but I haven't worked out whether it was
a problem or not. Even if it turns out to have been ok, keeping invalid
pointers around is fragile.

Require equality for the number of limbs in the modulus and the residue.
This makes these functions consistent with residue_setup().

The function isn't documented as accepting null pointer, and there's no
reason why it should be. Just let it dereference the pointer.
The null/zero checks are only marginally useful: they validate that m
and r are properly populated objects, not freshly initialized ones. For
that, it's enough to check that the pointers aren't null or that the
sizes aren't zero, we don't need to check both.
Also, use separate if statements for unrelated checks.

The value was overwritten and the length wasn't used either. This latter
could have lead to a buffer overflow as well.

Test macros have goto instructions to the end where everything is freed.
We need to call init before that happens to make calling free functions
safe.

The external representation before included more than just endianness
(like reading in Mongtomery curve scalars or converting hashes to
numbers in a standard compliant way).
These are higher level concepts and are out of scope for Bignum and for
the modulus structure.

Passing endianness as a parameter is a step towards removing it from the

In theory we could allow residues to have more allocated limbs than the
modulus, but we might or might not need it in the end.
Go for the simpler option for now and we can extend it later if we
really need it.

We want to make sure that the value has at least as many limbs allocated
as the modulus as we need this to be able to do any operations in
constant time.
An invariant of the API is that the residue values are canonical, make
sure that the residue is compared to the entire modulus.

This patch is inverting the input type checking logic in the method,
in order to ensure that residue < modulus.

This patch adds input and ouput fucntions in the `bignum_mod` layer.
The data will be automatically converted between Cannonical and
Montgomery representation if required.
