Explicitly recommend that the driver accounts for environmental
conditions that can affect the amount of entropy.

Gilles Peskine a14326f054 Make add_entropy optional
A random generation driver does not need to support entropy injection.
This will limit it to platforms where the RNG peripheral is the sole
entropy source and without an RNG seed saved into persistent storage.

Gilles Peskine 0e3b7ced4c Don't require a call to add_entropy when 0 bytes are needed
If an RNG peripheral includes an entropy source, it would presumably
declare "initial_entropy_size" and "reseed_entropy_size" to be 0. In
this case, don't require the core to call "add_entropy".

Gilles Peskine 5263e1ecdd Transparent drivers can have get_entropy as well
The `get_entropy` entry point can be provided by multiple transparent
drivers, and the core will call all of them. But apart from that,
`get_entropy` doesn't involve an opaque key or a location, so it can
be in a transparent driver.

Gilles Peskine e80978a260 Specification for random generation and entropy drivers
Transparent drivers may provide a DRBG interface through "add_entropy"
and "get_random" entry points. This interface may also be used with a
non-deterministic generator, for chips that include a TRNG.

Opaque driver may provide a "get_entropy" entry point.

Gilles Peskine 51977355dc Remove the time stamp
Having a time stamp identifying each revision of the document is
useful, but it's also a pain because it creates a conflict whenever
there are multiple pending changes at the same time. The gain isn't
worth the pain, so I'm removing the time stamp.

Ronald Cron cf56a0a320 psa: Move from key handle to key identifier
Move all the PSA crypto APIs using key handles
to use key identifiers but psa_key_open() and
psa_key_close(). This is done without modifying
any test as key handles and key identifiers are
now the same.

Update the library modules using PSA crypto APIs
to get rid of key handles.

Programs and unit tests are updated to not use
key handles in subsequent commits, not in this
one.

Gilles Peskine 233f91d5c1 Add bits output to validate_key and import_key
When importing a key, the code that parses the input needs to
determine the key size ("bits" attribute). This is specific to import
since other key creation methods require the caller to supply a size.
Therefore, add an extra output parameter `bits` to the "import_key"
entry point for opaque drivers. Likewise, add a `bits` output
parameter to the "validate_key" entry point for transparent drivers.

Ronald Cron 71016a9ea7 psa: Rename psa_key_file_id_t to mbedtls_svc_key_id_t
With PSA crypto v1.0.0, a volatile key identifier may
contain a owner identifier but no file is associated
to it. Thus rename the type psa_key_file_id_t to
mbedtls_svc_key_id_t to avoid a direct link with a
file when a key identifier involves an owner
identifier.

The new type name is prefixed by mbedtls to highlight
that the type is specific to Mbed TLS implementation
and not defined in the PSA Cryptography API
specification.

The svc in the type name stands for service as this
is the key identifier type from the point of view of
the service providing the Cryptography services.
The service can be completely provided by the present
library or partially in case of a multi-client service.

As a consequence rename as well:
. MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_KEY_FILE_ID_ENCODES_OWNER to
  MBEDTLS_PSA_CRYPTO_KEY_ID_ENCODES_OWNER
. PSA_KEY_ID_INIT to MBEDTLS_SVC_KEY_ID_INIT
. PSA_KEY_FILE_GET_KEY_ID to MBEDTLS_SVC_KEY_ID_GET_KEY_ID
. psa_key_file_id_make to mbedtls_svc_key_id_make

Gilles Peskine b51f96a7bf Pure C configuration of PSA crypto mechanisms
Proposed specification for conditional inclusion of cryptographic
mechanism through the PSA API in Mbed TLS.

The inclusion of a mechanism is based on a declaration of boolean
symbols by the application. There is a symbol for each key type or
parametrized key type constructor, and for each algorithm or
parametrized algorithm constructor.

This is work in progress, presented for a first design discussion.
