 *
 * - Naming convention x_words, y_words, z_words for number of words (limbs) used in a particular
 *   bignum. This number may be less than the size of the bignum
 *
 * - Naming convention hw_words for the hardware length of the operation. This number is always
 *   rounded up to a 512 bit multiple, and may be larger than any of the numbers involved in the
 *   calculation.
 *
 * - Timing behaviour of these functions will depend on the length of the inputs. This is fundamentally

 *   countermeasures (exponent blinding, etc) which are used in mbedTLS.
