    /* The approach below combines the signed-digit logic from Mike Hamburg's
     * "Fast and compact elliptic-curve cryptography" (https://eprint.iacr.org/2012/309)
     * Section 3.3, with the GLV endomorphism.
     *
     * The idea there is to interpret the bits of a scalar as signs (1 = +, 0 = -), and compute a
     * point multiplication in that fashion. Let v be an n-bit non-negative integer (0 <= v < 2^n),
     * and v[i] its i'th bit (so v = sum(v[i] * 2^i, i=0..n-1)). Then define:
     *
     *   C_l(v, A) = sum((2*v[i] - 1) * 2^i*A, i=0..l-1)
     *
     * Then it holds that C_l(v, A) = sum((2*v[i] - 1) * 2^i*A, i=0..l-1)
     *                              = (2*sum(v[i] * 2^i, i=0..l-1) + 1 - 2^l) * A
     *                              = (2*v + 1 - 2^l) * A
     *
     * Thus, one can compute q*A as C_256((q + 2^256 - 1) / 2, A). This is the basis for the
     * paper's signed-digit multi-comb algorithm for multiplication using a precomputed table.
     *
     * It is appealing to try to combine this with the GLV optimization: the idea that a scalar
     * s can be written as s1 + lambda*s2, where lambda is a curve-specific constant such that
     * lambda*A is easy to compute, and where s1 and s2 are small. In particular we have the
     * secp256k1_scalar_split_lambda function which performs such a split with the resulting s1
     * and s2 in range (-2^128, 2^128) mod n. This does work, but is uninteresting:
     *
     *   To compute q*A:
     *   - Let s1, s2 = split_lambda(q)
     *   - Let R1 = C_256((s1 + 2^256 - 1) / 2, A)
     *   - Let R2 = C_256((s2 + 2^256 - 1) / 2, lambda*A)
     *   - Return R1 + R2
     *
     * The issue is that while s1 and s2 are small-range numbers, (s1 + 2^256 - 1) / 2 (mod n)
     * and (s2 + 2^256 - 1) / 2 (mod n) are not, undoing the benefit of the splitting.
     *
     * To make it work, we want to modify the input scalar q first, before splitting, and then only
     * add a 2^128 offset of the split results (so that they end up in the single 129-bit range
     * [0,2^129]). A slightly smaller offset would work due to the bounds on the split, but we pick
     * 2^128 for simplicity. Let s be the scalar fed to split_lambda, and f(q) the function to
     * compute it from q:
     *
     *   To compute q*A:
     *   - Compute s = f(q)
     *   - Let s1, s2 = split_lambda(s)
     *   - Let v1 = s1 + 2^128 (mod n)
     *   - Let v2 = s2 + 2^128 (mod n)
     *   - Let R1 = C_l(v1, A)
     *   - Let R2 = C_l(v2, lambda*A)
     *   - Return R1 + R2
     *
     * l will thus need to be at least 129, but we may overshoot by a few bits (see
     * further), so keep it as a variable.
     *
     * To solve for s, we reason:
     *     q*A  = R1 + R2
     * <=> q*A  = C_l(s1 + 2^128, A) + C_l(s2 + 2^128, lambda*A)
     * <=> q*A  = (2*(s1 + 2^128) + 1 - 2^l) * A + (2*(s2 + 2^128) + 1 - 2^l) * lambda*A
     * <=> q*A  = (2*(s1 + s2*lambda) + (2^129 + 1 - 2^l) * (1 + lambda)) * A
     * <=> q    = 2*(s1 + s2*lambda) + (2^129 + 1 - 2^l) * (1 + lambda) (mod n)
     * <=> q    = 2*s + (2^129 + 1 - 2^l) * (1 + lambda) (mod n)
     * <=> s    = (q + (2^l - 2^129 - 1) * (1 + lambda)) / 2 (mod n)
     * <=> f(q) = (q + K) / 2 (mod n)
     *            where K = (2^l - 2^129 - 1)*(1 + lambda) (mod n)
     *
     * We will process the computation of C_l(v1, A) and C_l(v2, lambda*A) in groups of
     * ECMULT_CONST_GROUP_SIZE, so we set l to the smallest multiple of ECMULT_CONST_GROUP_SIZE
     * that is not less than 129; this equals ECMULT_CONST_BITS.

     * on a Weierstrass curve:
     * https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/cfrg/7DyYY6gg32wDgHAhgSb6XxMDlJA/
     *
     *
     * === Background: the effective affine technique ===
     *
     * Let phi_u be the isomorphism that maps (x, y) on secp256k1 curve y^2 = x^3 + 7 to
     * x' = u^2*x, y' = u^3*y on curve y'^2 = x'^3 + u^6*7. This new curve has the same order as
     * the original (it is isomorphic), but moreover, has the same addition/doubling formulas, as
     * the curve b=7 coefficient does not appear in those formulas (or at least does not appear in
     * the formulas implemented in this codebase, both affine and Jacobian). See also Example 9.5.2
     * in https://www.math.auckland.ac.nz/~sgal018/crypto-book/ch9.pdf.
     *
     * This means any linear combination of secp256k1 points can be computed by applying phi_u
     * (with non-zero u) on all input points (including the generator, if used), computing the
     * linear combination on the isomorphic curve (using the same group laws), and then applying
     * phi_u^{-1} to get back to secp256k1.
     *
     * Switching to Jacobian coordinates, note that phi_u applied to (X, Y, Z) is simply
     * (X, Y, Z/u). Thus, if we want to compute (X1, Y1, Z) + (X2, Y2, Z), with identical Z
     * coordinates, we can use phi_Z to transform it to (X1, Y1, 1) + (X2, Y2, 1) on an isomorphic
     * curve where the affine addition formula can be used instead.
     * If (X3, Y3, Z3) = (X1, Y1) + (X2, Y2) on that curve, then our answer on secp256k1 is
     * (X3, Y3, Z3*Z).
     *
     * This is the effective affine technique: if we have a linear combination of group elements
     * to compute, and all those group elements have the same Z coordinate, we can simply pretend
     * that all those Z coordinates are 1, perform the computation that way, and then multiply the
     * original Z coordinate back in.
     *
     * The technique works on any a=0 short Weierstrass curve. It is possible to generalize it to
     * other curves too, but there the isomorphic curves will have different 'a' coefficients,
     * which typically does affect the group laws.
     *
     *
     * === Avoiding the square root for x-only point multiplication ===
     *
     * In this function, we want to compute the X coordinate of q*(n/d, y), for
     * y = sqrt((n/d)^3 + 7). Its negation would also be a valid Y coordinate, but by convention
     * we pick whatever sqrt returns (which we assume to be a deterministic function).
     *
     * Let g = y^2*d^3 = n^3 + 7*d^3. This also means y = sqrt(g/d^3).
     * Further let v = sqrt(d*g), which must exist as d*g = y^2*d^4 = (y*d^2)^2.
     *
     * The input point (n/d, y) also has Jacobian coordinates:
     *
     *     (n/d, y, 1)
     *   = (n/d * v^2, y * v^3, v)
     *   = (n/d * d*g, y * sqrt(d^3*g^3), v)
     *   = (n/d * d*g, sqrt(y^2 * d^3*g^3), v)
     *   = (n*g, sqrt(g/d^3 * d^3*g^3), v)
     *   = (n*g, sqrt(g^4), v)
     *   = (n*g, g^2, v)
     *
     * It is easy to verify that both (n*g, g^2, v) and its negation (n*g, -g^2, v) have affine X
     * coordinate n/d, and this holds even when the square root function doesn't have a
     * deterministic sign. We choose the (n*g, g^2, v) version.
     *
     * Now switch to the effective affine curve using phi_v, where the input point has coordinates
     * (n*g, g^2). Compute (X, Y, Z) = q * (n*g, g^2) there.
     *
     * Back on secp256k1, that means q * (n*g, g^2, v) = (X, Y, v*Z). This last point has affine X
     * coordinate X / (v^2*Z^2) = X / (d*g*Z^2). Determining the affine Y coordinate would involve
     * a square root, but as long as we only care about the resulting X coordinate, no square root
     * is needed anywhere in this computation.
