 * # Pseudo-Random Generators
 *
 * A PRNG is a state-based engine that outputs pseudo-random bytes on
 * demand. It is initialized with an initial seed, and additional seed
 * bytes can be added afterwards. Bytes produced depend on the seeds and
 * also on the exact sequence of calls (including sizes requested for
 * each call).
 *
 *
 * ## Procedural and OOP API
 *
 * For the PRNG of name "`xxx`", two API are provided. The _procedural_
 * API defined a context structure `br_xxx_context` and three functions:
 *
 *   - `br_xxx_init()`
 *
 *     Initialise the context with an initial seed.
 *
 *   - `br_xxx_generate()`
 *
 *     Produce some pseudo-random bytes.
 *
 *   - `br_xxx_update()`
 *
 *     Inject some additional seed.
 *
 * The initialisation function sets the first context field (`vtable`)
 * to a pointer to the vtable that supports the OOP API. The OOP API
 * provides access to the same functions through function pointers,
 * named `init()`, `generate()` and `update()`.
 *
 * Note that the context initialisation method may accept additional
 * parameters, provided as a 'const void *' pointer at API level. These
 * additional parameters depend on the implemented PRNG.
 *
 *
 * ## HMAC_DRBG
 *
 * HMAC_DRBG is defined in [NIST SP 800-90A Revision
 * 1](http://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/SpecialPublications/NIST.SP.800-90Ar1.pdf).
 * It uses HMAC repeatedly, over some configurable underlying hash
 * function. In BearSSL, it is implemented under the "`hmac_drbg`" name.
 * The "extra parameters" pointer for context initialisation should be
 * set to a pointer to the vtable for the underlying hash function (e.g.
 * pointer to `br_sha256_vtable` to use HMAC_DRBG with SHA-256).
 *
 * According to the NIST standard, each request shall produce up to
 * 2<sup>19</sup> bits (i.e. 64 kB of data); moreover, the context shall
 * be reseeded at least once every 2<sup>48</sup> requests. This
 * implementation does not maintain the reseed counter (the threshold is
 * too high to be reached in practice) and does not object to producing
 * more than 64 kB in a single request; thus, the code cannot fail,
 * which corresponds to the fact that the API has no room for error
 * codes. However, this implies that requesting more than 64 kB in one
 * `generate()` request, or making more than 2<sup>48</sup> requests
 * without reseeding, is formally out of NIST specification. There is
 * no currently known security penalty for exceeding the NIST limits,
 * and, in any case, HMAC_DRBG usage in implementing SSL/TLS always
 * stays much below these thresholds.
 *
 *
 * ## AESCTR_DRBG
 *
 * AESCTR_DRBG is a custom PRNG based on AES-128 in CTR mode. This is
 * meant to be used only in situations where you are desperate for
 * speed, and have an hardware-optimized AES/CTR implementation. Whether
 * this will yield perceptible improvements depends on what you use the
 * pseudorandom bytes for, and how many you want; for instance, RSA key
 * pair generation uses a substantial amount of randomness, and using
 * AESCTR_DRBG instead of HMAC_DRBG yields a 15 to 20% increase in key
 * generation speed on a recent x86 CPU (Intel Core i7-6567U at 3.30 GHz).
 *
 * Internally, it uses CTR mode with successive counter values, starting
 * at zero (counter value expressed over 128 bits, big-endian convention).
 * The counter is not allowed to reach 32768; thus, every 32768*16 bytes
 * at most, the `update()` function is run (on an empty seed, if none is
 * provided). The `update()` function computes the new AES-128 key by
 * applying a custom hash function to the concatenation of a state-dependent
 * word (encryption of an all-one block with the current key) and the new
 * seed. The custom hash function uses Hirose's construction over AES-256;
 * see the comments in `aesctr_drbg.c` for details.
 *
 * This DRBG does not follow an existing standard, and thus should be
 * considered as inadequate for production use until it has been properly
 * analysed.
