//! X448 Diffie-Hellman over Curve448 (RFC 7748).
//!
//! The field is GF(2⁴⁴⁸−2²²⁴−1); arithmetic reuses the constant-time
//! [`MontModulus`] over seven 64-bit limbs. The
//! scalar multiplication is the Montgomery ladder with constant-time
//! conditional swaps on the Montgomery curve `v² = u³ + A·u² + u` with
//! `A = 156326`.
//!
//! Unlike X25519, RFC 7748 §6.2 does **not** mandate rejecting low-order /
//! contributory-failure peer public keys for X448 (the curve's small subgroup
//! is trivial enough that the cofactor handling differs). For parity with the
//! X25519 surface — and because TLS 1.3 (RFC 8446 §7.4.2) still requires
//! aborting on an all-zero shared secret — [`X448PrivateKey::diffie_hellman`]
//! returns a `Result` and surfaces the all-zero output as an error; the raw
//! [`x448`] primitive performs no such check.
