Log message:
Mark public bn_nist and ec_nist API for removal
The faster nist code is rife with problematic C. While this is generally
considered to be a pleonasm nowadays, here it specifically refers to
aliasing issues and other flavors of undefined behavior. With compilers
and standardization committees becoming seemingly more determined about
making C even more unusable than it already is, this code has resulted
in miscompilations and generally is a target rich environment for fuzzers
to feast on. We're better off without it. Go look while it's still there.
It's some of the very worst we have to offer.
