This takes advantage of the modulus being near a power of 2.

Rough idea of improvements. Seems to vary a lot between compilers and CPUs:

  • Sandybridge/GCC: ECDH and ECDSA all about 9% faster
  • Skylake/GCC: ECDH 19% faster, ECDSA sign 13% faster, ECDSA verify 17% faster

#4027

This takes advantage of the modulus being near a power of 2.

Performance improvement varies by CPU, compiler, and specific
algorithm in use, but generally ranges between 10% to 20%.
