///   - `double`, `square`, and `invert` operations
///   - Bounds for [`Add`], [`Sub`], [`Mul`], and [`Neg`] (as well as `*Assign` equivalents)
///   - Bounds for [`ConditionallySelectable`] from the `subtle` crate
/// - [`PrimeField`](https://docs.rs/ff/latest/ff/trait.PrimeField.html) -
///   represents elements of prime fields and provides:
///   - `from_repr`/`to_repr` for converting field elements from/to big integers.
