bound, but macroscopic probability with a small bound.

In real life, min << N and the probability that mbedtls_mpi_random()
fails to find a suitable value after 30 iterations is less than one in
a billion. But at least for testing purposes, it's useful to not
outright reject "silly" small values of N, and for such values, 30
iterations is not enough to have a good probability of success.
Pick 250 iterations, which is enough for cases like (min=3, N=4), but
not for cases like (min=255, N=256).

Do more iterations with small values. This makes it more likely that a
mistake on bounds will be detected.

Slightly simplify is_significantly_above_a_power_of_2() to make it
easier to understand:
* Remove the explicit negative answer for x <= 4. The only functional
difference this makes is that is_significantly_above_a_power_of_2(3)
is now true.
* Shift the most significant bit of x to position 8 rather than 15.
This makes the final comparison easier to explain.

Add unit tests for mbedtls_mpi_fill_random() and mbedtls_mpi_random()
when the resulting MPI object previously had a nonzero value. I wrote
those to catch a bug that I introduced during the development of
mbedtls_mpi_random() (but does not appear in a committed version).

mbedtls_mpi_random() uses mbedtls_mpi_cmp_mpi_ct(), which requires its
two arguments to have the same storage size. This was not the case
when the upper bound passed to mbedtls_mpi_random() had leading zero
limbs.
Fix this by forcing the result MPI to the desired size. Since this is
not what mbedtls_mpi_fill_random() does, don't call it from
mbedtls_mpi_random(), but instead call a new auxiliary function.
Add tests to cover this and other conditions with varying sizes for
the two arguments.

P-1 is as bad as 1 as a blinding value. Don't accept it.
The chance that P-1 would be randomly generated is infinitesimal, so
this is not a practical issue, but it makes the code cleaner. It was
inconsistent to accept P-1 as a blinding value but not as a private key.

Since mbedtls_mpi_random() is not specific to ECC code, move it from
the ECP module to the bignum module.
This increases the code size in builds without short Weierstrass
curves (including builds without ECC at all) that do not optimize out
unused functions.

Rename mbedtls_ecp_gen_privkey_sw to mbedtls_mpi_random since it has
no particular connection to elliptic curves beyond the fact that its
operation is defined by the deterministic ECDSA specification. This is
a generic function that generates a random MPI between 1 inclusive and
N exclusive.
Slightly generalize the function to accept a different lower bound,
which adds a negligible amount of complexity.

Add unit tests for private key generation on short Weierstrass curves.
These tests validate that the result is within the desired range.
Additionally, they validate that after performing many iterations, the
range is covered to an acceptable extent: for tiny ranges, all values
must be reached; for larger ranges, all value bits must reach both 0
and 1.

mbedtls_ecp_gen_privkey_mx generates a random number with a certain
top bit set. Depending on the size, it would either generate a number
with that top bit being random, then forcibly set the top bit to
1 (when high_bit is not a multiple of 8); or generate a number with
that top bit being 0, then set the top bit to 1 (when high_bit is a
multiple of 8). Change it to always generate the top bit randomly
first.
This doesn't make any difference in practice: the probability
distribution is the same either way, and no supported or plausible
curve has a size of the form 8n+1 anyway. But it slightly simplifies
reasoning about the behavior of this function.

Don't calculate the bit-size of the initially generated random number.
This is not necessary to reach the desired distribution of private
keys, and creates a (tiny) side channel opportunity.
This changes the way the result is derived from the random number, but
does not affect the resulting distribution.

The library rejected an RNG input of all-bits-zero, which led to the
key 2^{254} (for Curve25519) having a 31/32 chance of being generated
compared to other keys. This had no practical impact because the
probability of non-compliance was 2^{-256}, but needlessly
complicated the code.
The exception was added in 98e28a74e3 to
avoid the case where b - 1 wraps because b is 0. Instead, change the
comparison code to avoid calculating b - 1.

When mbedtls_nist_kw_wrap was called with output=NULL and out_size=0, it
performed arithmetic on the null pointer before detecting that the output
buffer is too small and returning an error code. This was unlikely to have
consequences on real-world hardware today, but it is undefined behavior and
UBSan with Clang 10 flagged it. So fix it (fix#4025).
Fix a similar-looking pattern in unwrap, though I haven't verified that it's

The call to `tests/scripts/generate_psa_tests.py` added by the commit
"generate_psa_tests.py: allow generating each file independently"
assumed that the `check` function supports multiple file names, but in
fact it does not do so. When `generate_psa_tests.py` started generating
more than one file, `check-generated-files.sh` did not detect changes to
files other than the first one listed by `generate_psa_tests.py --list`.
Fix this: change `check` to support either a single directory (with
detection of added/removed files) or a list of files (which is assumed
to be static).

When generating expressions to construct test case data, there can be
duplicate values, for example if a value of the form C(A) is present
as such in test_suite_psa_crypto_metadata.data and also constructed by
enumerating the argument A for the constructor C. Eliminate such
duplicates in generate_expressions.
This commit removes many test cases that were exact duplicates (and
