annotate dropbearkey.1 @ 1659:d32bcb5c557d

Add Ed25519 support (#91) * Add support for Ed25519 as a public key type Ed25519 is a elliptic curve signature scheme that offers better security than ECDSA and DSA and good performance. It may be used for both user and host keys. OpenSSH key import and fuzzer are not supported yet. Initially inspired by Peter Szabo. * Add curve25519 and ed25519 fuzzers * Add import and export of Ed25519 keys
