	  d curve25519.go
		Package curve25519 provides an implementation of the X25519 function, which
		performs scalar multiplication on the elliptic curve known as Curve25519.
		See RFC 7748.
		
		Starting in Go 1.20, this package is a wrapper for the X25519 implementation
		in the crypto/ecdh package.

Package-Level Functions (total 3)

	 func ScalarBaseMult(dst, scalar *[32]byte)
		ScalarBaseMult sets dst to the product scalar * base where base is the
		standard generator.
		
		It is recommended to use the X25519 function with Basepoint instead, as
		copying into fixed size arrays can lead to unexpected bugs.

	 func ScalarMult(dst, scalar, point *[32]byte)
		ScalarMult sets dst to the product scalar * point.
		
		Deprecated: when provided a low-order point, ScalarMult will set dst to all
		zeroes, irrespective of the scalar. Instead, use the X25519 function, which
		will return an error.

	 func X25519(scalar, point []byte) ([]byte, error)
		X25519 returns the result of the scalar multiplication (scalar * point),
		according to RFC 7748, Section 5. scalar, point and the return value are
		slices of 32 bytes.
		
		scalar can be generated at random, for example with crypto/rand. point should
		be either Basepoint or the output of another X25519 call.
		
		If point is Basepoint (but not if it's a different slice with the same
		contents) a precomputed implementation might be used for performance.


Package-Level Variables (only one)

	  var Basepoint []byte
		Basepoint is the canonical Curve25519 generator.


Package-Level Constants (total 2)

	const PointSize = 32
		PointSize is the size of the point input to X25519.

	const ScalarSize = 32
		ScalarSize is the size of the scalar input to X25519.
