Previously, not all flags were supported by the gcc version that was used
(pre-4.9). Now, since the minimum version gcc version tested is 5.4,
the flags can be unified.

We were still reusing the internal HMAC-DRBG of the deterministic ECDSA
for blinding. This meant that with cryptographically low likelyhood the
result was not the same signature as the one the deterministic ECDSA
algorithm has to produce (however it is still a valid ECDSA signature).
To correct this we seed a second HMAC-DRBG with the same seed to restore
correct behavior. We also apply a label to avoid reusing the bits of the
ephemeral key for a different purpose and reduce the chance that they
leak.
This workaround can't be implemented in the restartable case without
penalising the case where external RNG is available or completely
defeating the purpose of the restartable feature, therefore in this case
the small chance of incorrect behavior remains.
Alternative implementations are often hardware accelerators and might
not need an RNG for blinding. But if they do, then we make them misuse
the RNG in the deterministic case.
There are several way around this:
- Exposing a lower level function for replacement. This would be the
optimal solution, but litters the API and is not backward compatible.
- Introducing a new compile time option for replacing the deterministic
function. This would mostly cover the same code as
MBEDTLS_ECDSA_DETERMINISTIC and would be yet another compile time flag.
- Reusing the existing MBEDTLS_ECDSA_DETERMINISTIC macro. This changes
the algorithm used by the PK layer from deterministic to randomised if
the alternative implementation is present.
This commit implements the third option. This is a temporary solution
and should be fixed at the next device driver API change.
The current interface does not allow passing an RNG, which is needed for
blinding. Using the scheme's internal HMAC-DRBG results the same
blinding values for the same key and message, diminishing the
effectiveness of the countermeasure. A new function
`mbedtls_ecdsa_det_ext` is available to address this problem.
In preparation of deprecating the old and less secure deterministic
ECDSA signature function we need to remove it from the test. At the
same time, the new function needs to be tested. Modifying the tests
to use the new function achieves both of these goals.
`mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det` reuses the internal HMAC-DRBG instance to
implement blinding. The advantage of this is that the algorithm is
deterministic too, not just the resulting signature. The drawback is
that the blinding is always the same for the same key and message.
This diminishes the efficiency of blinding and leaks information about
the private key.
A function that takes external randomness fixes this weakness.

It may be possible that the implementation runs out of
memory when exporting a key from storage or a secure
element. For example, it may not be possible to directly
move the data from storage to the caller, so the implementation
will have to buffer the material temporarily (an issue if dynamic
memory allocation scheme is used). For a large key
this is more likely to return.
It may be possible that an implementation does not
fetch key material until a command like
this is called and such an error may occur if an
off-chip secure storage dependency may have been wiped.
Note that PSA_ERROR_NOT_PERMITTED is not included
because I can't think of a scenario where you have
a valid key handle but aren't allowed to read the
attributes
