libuecc v7 (2016/03/27)
* Change conversion between Ed25519 and legacy representation. This should
not affect any operations unless Ed25519 and legacy load/store
functions are mixed when accessing a work structure. Doing so is now
officially supported, for example to convert a legacy public key to
Ed25519 format.
* The changed representation allows to use the same
ecc_25519_work_default_base for both Ed25519 and legacy.
ecc_25519_work_default_base and ecc_25519_scalarmult_base have been
undeprecated, ecc_25519_work_base_ed25519 and
ecc_25519_work_base_legacy are deprecated now.
* All points are now internally represented with Ed25519 coordinates, which
allows about 6% faster scalar multplication than the legacy
representation.
* ecc_25519_scalarmult_base has been further optimized, making it another
6% faster than normal ecc_25519_scalarmult.
libuecc v6 (2015/10/25)
* Fixes a bug which might have caused a point's y coordinate to be negated
in certain circumstances when the point was stored in packed
representation and loaded again. It is extremely improbable that this
has ever actually happened, as only a small range of coordinates was
affected.
* Use stdint types to clarify ABI and add support for systems with
sizeof(int) < 4 (this is not an ABI break in practise as all systems on
which libuecc has been used in the past should have int == int32_t)
* Add point negation and subtraction functions
* Rename all point access functions to bear a _legacy suffix (the old names
are still available, but marked as deprecated)
* Add new point access functions and a new generator point that are
compatible with Ed25519
