Checking the budget only after the randomization is done means sometimes we
were randomizing first, then noticing we ran out of budget, return, come back
and randomize again before we finally normalize.
While this is fine from a correctness and security perspective, it's a minor
inefficiency, and can also be disconcerting while debugging, so we might as
well avoid it.

It results in smaller code than using CTR_DRBG (64 bytes smaller on ARMv6-M
with arm-none-eabi-gcc 7.3.1), so let's use this by default when both are
available.

Unless MBEDTLS_ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG is defined, it's no longer possible for
f_rng to be NULL at the places that randomize coordinates.
Eliminate the NULL check in this case:
- it makes it clearer to reviewers that randomization always happens (unless
the user opted out at compile time)
- a NULL check in a place where it's easy to prove the value is never NULL
might upset or confuse static analyzers (including humans)
- removing the check saves a bit of code size

Currently we draw pseudo-random numbers at the beginning and end of the main
loop. With ECP_RESTARTABLE, it's possible that between those two occasions we
returned from the multiplication function, hence lost our internal DRBG
context that lives in this function's stack frame. This would result in the
same pseudo-random numbers being used for blinding in multiple places. While
it's not immediately clear that this would give rise to an attack, it's also
absolutely not clear that it doesn't. So let's avoid that by using a DRBG
context that lives inside the restart context and persists across
return/resume cycles. That way the RESTARTABLE case uses exactly the
same pseudo-random numbers as the non-restartable case.
Testing and compile-time options:
- The case ECP_RESTARTABLE && !ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG is already tested by
component_test_no_use_psa_crypto_full_cmake_asan.
- The case ECP_RESTARTABLE && ECP_NO_INTERNAL_RNG didn't have a pre-existing
test so a component is added.
Testing and runtime options: when ECP_RESTARTABLE is enabled, the test suites
already contain cases where restart happens and cases where it doesn't
(because the operation is short enough or because restart is disabled (NULL
restart context)).

While it seems cleaner and more convenient to set it in the top-level
mbedtls_ecp_mul() function, the existence of the restartable option changes
things - when it's enabled the drbg context needs to be saved in the restart
context (more precisely in the restart_mul sub-context), which can only be
done when it's allocated, which is in the curve-specific mul function.
This commit only internal drbg management from mbedtls_ecp_mul() to
ecp_mul_mxz() and ecp_mul_comb(), without modifying behaviour (even internal),
and a future commit will modify the ecp_mul_comb() version to handle restart
properly.

The case of MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTABLE isn't handled correctly yet: in that case
the DRBG instance should persist when resuming the operation. This will be
addressed in the next commit.
When both CTR_DRBG and HMAC_DRBG are available, CTR_DRBG is preferred since
both are suitable but CTR_DRBG tends to be faster and I needed a tie-breaker.
There are currently three possible cases to test:
- NO_INTERNAL_RNG is set -> tested in test_ecp_no_internal_rng
- it's unset and CTR_DRBG is available -> tested in the default config
- it's unset and CTR_DRBG is disabled -> tested in
test_ecp_internal_rng_no_ctr_drbg

See the comments in the code for how an attack would go, and the ChangeLog
entry for an impact assessment. (For ECDSA, leaking a few bits of the scalar
over several signatures translates to full private key recovery using a
lattice attack.)

The signature of mbedtls_mpi_cmp_mpi_ct() meant to support using it in
place of mbedtls_mpi_cmp_mpi(). This meant full comparison functionality
and a signed result.
To make the function more universal and friendly to constant time
coding, we change the result type to unsigned. Theoretically, we could
encode the comparison result in an unsigned value, but it would be less
intuitive.
Therefore we won't be able to represent the result as unsigned anymore
and the functionality will be constrained to checking if the first
operand is less than the second. This is sufficient to support the
current use case and to check any relationship between MPIs.
The only drawback is that we need to call the function twice when
checking for equality, but this can be optimised later if an when it is
needed.
This commit improves hygiene and formatting of macro definitions
throughout the library. Specifically:
- It adds brackets around parameters to avoid unintended
interpretation of arguments, e.g. due to operator precedence.
- It adds uses of the `do { ... } while( 0 )` idiom for macros that
can be used as commands.
Function calls to alternative implementations have to follow certain
rules in order to preserve correct functionality. To avoid accidentally
breaking these rules we state them explicitly in the ECP module for
ourselves and every contributor to see.
We initialized the ECC hardware before calling
mbedtls_ecp_mul_shortcuts(). This in turn calls
mbedtls_ecp_mul_restartable(), which initializes and frees the hardware
too. This issue has been introduced by recent changes and caused some
accelerators to hang.
We move the initialization after the mbedtle_ecp_mul_shortcuts() calls
to avoid double initialization.
`mbedtls_ecp_tls_read_group()` both parses the group ID and loads the
group into the structure provided. We want to support alternative
implementations of ECDH in the future and for that we need to parse the
group ID without populating an `mbedtls_ecp_group` structure (because
alternative implementations might not use that).
This commit moves the part that parses the group ID to a new function.
There is no need to test the new function directly, because the tests
for `mbedtls_ecp_tls_read_group()` are already implicitly testing it.
There is no intended change in behaviour in this commit.
This commit modifies a bounds check in `mbedtls_ecp_check_budget()` to
be correct even if the requested number of ECC operations would overflow
the operation counter.

In ecp_mul_comb(), if (!p_eq_g && grp->T == NULL) and then ecp_precompute_comb() fails (which can
happen due to OOM), then the new array of points T will be leaked (as it's newly allocated, but
hasn't been asigned to grp->T yet).
Symptom was a memory leak in ECDHE key exchange under low memory conditions.
The IAR compiler doesn't like it when we assign an int to an enum variable.

This commit removes all the static occurrencies of the function
mbedtls_zeroize() in each of the individual .c modules. Instead the
function has been moved to utils.h that is included in each of the
modules.
The function mbedtls_ecp_gen_keypair_base did not wipe the stack buffer used to
hold the private exponent before returning. This commit fixes this by not using
a stack buffer in the first place but instead calling mpi_fill_random directly
to acquire the necessary random MPI.
If rsm != NULL then the curve type has to be Short Weierstrass, as we don't
implement restartable Montgomery now. If and when we do, then it's better to
check for the subcontext only, and not for the curve type.
Exactly one of three ways will be used, so make that clear by using an
if 1 else if 2 else 3 structure.
While at it, don't initialize variables at declaration, just to make extra
sure they're properly initialized afterwards in all code paths.
Systematically assign state just before the next operation that may return,
rather that just after the previous one. This makes things more local. (For
example, previously precompute_comb() has to handle a state reset for
mul_comb_core(), a kind of coupling that's best avoided.)
Note that this change doesn't move the location of state updates relative
to any potential return point, which is all that matters.
Incrementing the state is error-prone as we can end up doing it too many times
(loops) or not enough (skipped branches), or just make programming mistakes
(eg. the state was incremented twice at the end, so it ended up with a value
not in the enum...)
This is the first step of the rework, the next one will rationalize where the
state assignments are done.
The call would anyway check for pointer equality and return early, but it
doesn't hurt to save a function call, and also this follows more uniformly the
pattern that those two lines go together:
#if defined(MBEDTLS_ECP_RESTARTBLE)
if( rs_ctx != NULL && ...
