1//! NIST P-384 Elliptic Curve Primitives
2//!
3//! This module implements NIST P-384 elliptic-curve arithmetic.
4//! The curve equation is y² = x³ - 3x + b over the prime field F_p where:
5//! - p = 2^384 - 2^128 - 2^96 + 2^32 - 1 (NIST P-384 prime)
6//! - The curve order n = 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFC7634D81F4372DDF581A0DB248B0A77AECEC196ACCC52973
7//!
8//! Selected paths use fixed-iteration or conditional-selection techniques, but
9//! no blanket constant-time claim is made for the module, compiler, or target.
10//! The implementation uses:
11//! - Barrett reduction for field arithmetic
12//! - Jacobian projective coordinates for efficient point operations
13//! - Binary scalar multiplication with constant-time point selection
