/** Unless explicitly stated all pointer arguments must not be NULL.
*
* The following rules specify the order of arguments in API calls:
*
* 1. Context pointers go first, followed by output arguments, combined
* output/input arguments, and finally input-only arguments.
* 2. Array lengths always immediately follow the argument whose length
* they describe, even if this violates rule 1.
* 3. Within the OUT/OUTIN/IN groups, pointers to data that is typically generated
* later go first. This means: signatures, public nonces, secret nonces,
* messages, public keys, secret keys, tweaks.
* 4. Arguments that are not data pointers go last, from more complex to less
* complex: function pointers, algorithm names, messages, void pointers,
* counts, flags, booleans.
* 5. Opaque data pointers follow the function pointer they are to be passed to.

/** Opaque data structure that holds context information
*
* The primary purpose of context objects is to store randomization data for
* enhanced protection against side-channel leakage. This protection is only
* effective if the context is randomized after its creation. See
* secp256k1_context_create for creation of contexts and
* secp256k1_context_randomize for randomization.
*
* A secondary purpose of context objects is to store pointers to callback
* functions that the library will call when certain error states arise. See
* secp256k1_context_set_error_callback as well as
* secp256k1_context_set_illegal_callback for details. Future library versions
* may use context objects for additional purposes.
*
* A constructed context can safely be used from multiple threads
* simultaneously, but API calls that take a non-const pointer to a context
* need exclusive access to it. In particular this is the case for
* secp256k1_context_destroy, secp256k1_context_preallocated_destroy,
* and secp256k1_context_randomize.
*
* Regarding randomization, either do it once at creation time (in which case
* you do not need any locking for the other calls), or use a read-write lock.

* In: sigin: a pointer to a signature to check/normalize (can be identical to sigout)
*
* With ECDSA a third-party can forge a second distinct signature of the same
* message, given a single initial signature, but without knowing the key. This
* is done by negating the S value modulo the order of the curve, 'flipping'
* the sign of the random point R which is not included in the signature.
*
* Forgery of the same message isn't universally problematic, but in systems
* where message malleability or uniqueness of signatures is important this can
* cause issues. This forgery can be blocked by all verifiers forcing signers
* to use a normalized form.
*
* The lower-S form reduces the size of signatures slightly on average when
* variable length encodings (such as DER) are used and is cheap to verify,
* making it a good choice. Security of always using lower-S is assured because
* anyone can trivially modify a signature after the fact to enforce this
* property anyway.
*
* The lower S value is always between 0x1 and

* inclusive.
*
* No other forms of ECDSA malleability are known and none seem likely, but
* there is no formal proof that ECDSA, even with this additional restriction,
* is free of other malleability. Commonly used serialization schemes will also
* accept various non-unique encodings, so care should be taken when this
* property is required for an application.
*
* The secp256k1_ecdsa_sign function will by default create signatures in the
* lower-S form, and secp256k1_ecdsa_verify will not accept others. In case
* signatures come from a system that cannot enforce this property,
* secp256k1_ecdsa_signature_normalize must be called before verification.

* require a context that is not the secp256k1_context_static. As a rule of thumb,
* these are all functions which take a secret key (or a keypair) as an input.
* A notable exception to that rule is the ECDH module, which relies on a different

* enhanced protection against side-channel leakage currently.
*

* memory (e.g., obtained via secp256k1_context_clone). In that case, this
