8794a4b3ae QA: add test for HKDF HMAC_SHA256 L32 (Jonas Schnelli)
551d489416 Add HKDF HMAC_SHA256 L=32 implementations (Jonas Schnelli)
3b64f852e4 QA: add test for CKey::Negate() (Jonas Schnelli)
463921bb64 CKey: add method to negate the key (Jonas Schnelli)
Pull request description:
This adds a limited implementation of `HKDF` (defined by rfc5869) that supports only HMAC-SHA256 and length output of 32 bytes (will be required for v2 transport protocol).
This PR also includes a method to negate a private key which is useful to enforce public keys starting with 0x02 (or 0x03) (a requirement for the v2 transport protocol). The new `CKey::Negate()` method is pretty much a wrapper around `secp256k1_ec_privkey_negate()`.
Including tests.
This is a subset of #14032 and a pre-requirement for the v2 transport protocol.

e306be7429 Use 72 byte dummy signatures when watching only inputs may be used (Andrew Chow)

18dfea0dd0 Always create 70 byte signatures with low R values (Andrew Chow)
Pull request description:
When creating signatures for transactions, always make one which has a 32 byte or smaller R and 32 byte or smaller S value. This results in signatures that are always less than 71 bytes (32 byte R + 32 byte S + 6 bytes DER + 1 byte sighash) with low R values. In most cases, the signature will be 71 bytes.
Because R is not mutable in the same way that S is, a low R value can only be found by trying different nonces. RFC 6979 for deterministic nonce generation has the option to specify additional entropy, so we simply use that and add a uin32_t counter which we increment in order to try different nonces. Nonces are sill deterministically generated as the nonce used will the be the first one where the counter results in a nonce that results in a low R value. Because different nonces need to be tried, time to produce a signature does increase. On average, it takes twice as long to make a signature as two signatures need to be created, on average, to find one with a low R.
Having a fixed size signature makes size calculations easier and also saves half a byte of transaction size, on average.
DUMMY_SIGNATURE_CREATOR has been modified to produce 71 byte dummy signatures instead of 72 byte signatures.

When extra entropy is not specified by the caller, CKey::Sign will
now always create a signature that has a low R value and is at most
70 bytes. The resulting signature on the stack will be 71 bytes when
the sighash byte is included.
Using low R signatures means that the resulting DER encoded signature
will never need to have additional padding to account for high R
values.
This patch removes the need for the intermediary Base58 type
CBitcoinAddress, by providing {Encode,Decode,IsValid}Destination
function that directly operate on the conversion between strings
and CTxDestination.
Make sure that chainparams and logging is properly initialized. Doing
this for every test may be overkill, but this initialization is so
simple that that does not matter.
This should fix the travis issues.
Add a sanity check to prevent cosmic rays from flipping a bit in the
generated public key, or bugs in the elliptic curve code. This is
simply done by signing a (randomized) message, and verifying the
result.
- Add license headers to source files (years based on commit dates)
in `src/test` as well as `qa`
- Add `README.md` to `src/test/data` specifying MIT license
Fixes#3848
Use misc methods of avoiding unnecesary header includes.
Replace int typedefs with int##_t from stdint.h.
Replace PRI64[xdu] with PRI[xdu]64 from inttypes.h.
Normalize QT_VERSION ifs where possible.
Resolve some indirect dependencies as direct ones.
Remove extern declarations from .cpp files.
This introduces internal types:
* CKeyID: reference (hash160) of a key
* CScriptID: reference (hash160) of a script
* CTxDestination: a boost::variant of the former two
CBitcoinAddress is retrofitted to be a Base58 encoding of a
CTxDestination. This allows all internal code to only use the
internal types, and only have RPC and GUI depend on the base58 code.
Furthermore, the header dependencies are a lot saner now. base58.h is
at the top (right below rpc and gui) instead of at the bottom. For the
rest: wallet -> script -> keystore -> key. Only keystore still requires
a forward declaration of CScript. Solving that would require splitting
script into two layers.
This tests:
* creation of keys from base58-encoded strings
* extracting public keys and addresses
* compressed public keys
* compact signatures and key recovery
