/* For accelerating the computation of a*G:
* To harden against timing attacks, use the following mechanism:
* * Break up the multiplicand into groups of 4 bits, called n_0, n_1, n_2, ..., n_63.
* * Compute sum(n_i * 16^i * G + U_i, i=0..63), where:
* * U_i = U * 2^i (for i=0..62)
* * U_i = U * (1-2^63) (for i=63)
* where U is a point with no known corresponding scalar. Note that sum(U_i, i=0..63) = 0.
* For each i, and each of the 16 possible values of n_i, (n_i * 16^i * G + U_i) is
* precomputed (call it prec(i, n_i)). The formula now becomes sum(prec(i, n_i), i=0..63).
* None of the resulting prec group elements have a known scalar, and neither do any of
* the intermediate sums while computing a*G.
