For NIST P192/256/384 the public key's x and y parameters could be copied
directly from a given array since both parameters filled 'ndigits' of
digits (a 'digit' is a u64). For support of NIST P521 the key parameters
need to have leading zeros prepended to the most significant digit since
only 2 bytes of the most significant digit are provided.

Therefore, implement ecc_digits_from_bytes to convert a byte array into an
array of digits and use this function in ecdsa_set_pub_key where an input
byte array needs to be converted into digits.

We "could" do various things but a commit message should describe the
gain or motivation of doing something, even if you think it should be
obvious.

Please, dscribe the format of "array of digits" instead of waving hands
here.

This pointer increment is more confusing...

...than "&d[1]" which would also match better the earlier code.

"could" is past participle of the verb "can".  We were able to copy
directly but no longer can due to the odd key size of P521.

Thanks,

OK this clarifies, thanks.
