NIST and many other sources call it a "personalization string", and
certainly not "device-specific identifiers" which is actually somewhat
misleading since this is just one of many things that might go into a
personalization string.
Improve the formatting and writing of the documentation based on what
had been done for CTR_DRBG.
Document the maximum size and nullability of some buffer parameters.
Document that a derivation function is used.
Document the security strength of the DRBG depending on the
compile-time configuration and how it is set up. In particular,
document how the nonce specified in SP 800-90A is set.
Mention how to link the ctr_drbg module with the entropy module.
* State explicit whether several numbers are in bits or bytes.
* Clarify whether buffer pointer parameters can be NULL.
* Explain the value of constants that are dependent on the configuration.

Fixes#2759
Document how mbedtls_asn1_store_named_data allocates val.p in the new
or modified entry.
Change the behavior to be more regular, always setting the new length
to val_len. This does not affect the previous documented behavior
since this aspect was not documented. This does not affect current
usage in Mbed TLS's X.509 module where calls with the same OID always
use the same size for the associated value.
Document preconditions on parameters, values changed through pointers,
and error codes.
This commit leaves some issues regarding integers (especially negative
integers) open, because we don't have a policy decision on how to
handle them yet.
Alternative implementations are often hardware accelerators and might
not need an RNG for blinding. But if they do, then we make them misuse
the RNG in the deterministic case.
There are several way around this:
- Exposing a lower level function for replacement. This would be the
optimal solution, but litters the API and is not backward compatible.
- Introducing a new compile time option for replacing the deterministic
function. This would mostly cover the same code as
MBEDTLS_ECDSA_DETERMINISTIC and would be yet another compile time flag.
- Reusing the existing MBEDTLS_ECDSA_DETERMINISTIC macro. This changes
the algorithm used by the PK layer from deterministic to randomised if
the alternative implementation is present.
This commit implements the third option. This is a temporary solution
and should be fixed at the next device driver API change.
The current interface does not allow passing an RNG, which is needed for
blinding. Using the scheme's internal HMAC-DRBG results the same
blinding values for the same key and message, diminishing the
effectiveness of the countermeasure. A new function
`mbedtls_ecdsa_det_ext` is available to address this problem.
`mbedtls_ecdsa_sign_det` reuses the internal HMAC-DRBG instance to
implement blinding. The advantage of this is that the algorithm is
deterministic too, not just the resulting signature. The drawback is
that the blinding is always the same for the same key and message.
This diminishes the efficiency of blinding and leaks information about
the private key.
A function that takes external randomness fixes this weakness.

x0-x3 are skipped such that function parameters to not have to be moved.
MULADDC_INIT and MULADDC_STOP are mostly empty because it is more
efficient to keep everything in registers (and that should easily be
possible). I considered a MULADDC_HUIT implementation, but could not
think of something that would be more efficient than basically 8
consecutive MULADDC_CORE. You could combine the loads and stores, but
it's probably more efficient to interleave them with arithmetic,
depending on the specific microarchitecture. NEON allows to do a
64x64->128 bit multiplication (and optional accumulation) in one
instruction, but is not great at handling carries.

Update Mbed Crypto to contain mbed-crypto#152
CMake: Add a subdirectory build regression test

Remove use of CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR
Update library version to 2.18.0
Bring Mbed TLS 2.18.0 and 2.18.1 release changes back into the
development branch. We had branched to release 2.18.0 and 2.18.1 in
order to allow those releases to go out without having to block work on
the `development` branch.
Manually resolve conflicts in the Changelog by moving all freshly addded
changes to a new, unreleased version entry.
Reject changes to include/mbedtls/platform.h made in the mbedtls-2.18
branch, as that file is now sourced from Mbed Crypto.
* mbedtls-2.18:
platform: Include stdarg.h where needed
