Mbed OS now provides POSIX-like time functions, although not alarm() nor
signal(). It is possible to implement MBEDTLS_TIMING_ALT on Mbed OS, so
we should not artificially prevent this in check-config. Remove the the
check that prevents implementing MBEDTLS_TIMING_ALT on Mbed OS.
Note that this limitation originally was added in the following commit,
although there isn't much context around why the restriction was
imposed: 63e7ebaaa1 ("Add material for generating yotta module"). In
2015, Mbed OS was quite a different thing: no RTOS, no threads, just an
asynchronous event loop model. I'd suppose the asynchronous event loop
model made it difficult before to implement MBEDTLS_TIMING_C on Mbed OS,
but that is no longer the case.

Calling mbedtls_mpi_cmp_int reveals the number of leading zero limbs
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
signature operations.

The idiom "resize an mpi to a given size" appeared 4 times. Unify it
in a single function. Guarantee that the value is set to 0, which is
required by some of the callers and not a significant expense where
not required.

Since the internal function mpi_fill_random_internal() assumes that X
has the right size, there is no need to call grow().
To further simplify the function, set the sign outside, and zero out
the non-randomized part directly.

Note that this error has a negligible probability with a "crypto-sized"
bound, but macroscopic probability with a small bound.

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).

Do more iterations with small values. This makes it more likely that a
mistake on bounds will be detected.

Slightly simplify is_significantly_above_a_power_of_2() to make it
easier to understand:
* Remove the explicit negative answer for x <= 4. The only functional
difference this makes is that is_significantly_above_a_power_of_2(3)
is now true.
* Shift the most significant bit of x to position 8 rather than 15.
This makes the final comparison easier to explain.

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).

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.

dhm_make_common includes a piece of code that is identical to

P-1 is as bad as 1 as a blinding value. Don't accept it.
The chance that P-1 would be randomly generated is infinitesimal, so
this is not a practical issue, but it makes the code cleaner. It was
inconsistent to accept P-1 as a blinding value but not as a private key.

* Test that the output in the byte buffer matches the value in the
