ARMv8.3 adds pointer authentication extension, which in this case allows
to ensure that, when offloaded to stack, return address is same at return
as at entry to the subroutine. The new instructions are nops on processors
that don't implement the extension, so that the vetification is backward
compatible.

The ecp_nistz256_scatter_w7 function is called when application
attempts to use custom generator, i.e. rarely. Even though non-x86_64
versions were wrong, it didn't affect point operations, they were just
not as fast as expected.

The prevailing style seems to not have trailing whitespace, but a few
lines do. This is mostly in the perlasm files, but a few C files got
them after the reformat. This is the result of:
find . -name '*.pl' | xargs sed -E -i '' -e 's/( |'$'\t'')*$//'
find . -name '*.c' | xargs sed -E -i '' -e 's/( |'$'\t'')*$//'
find . -name '*.h' | xargs sed -E -i '' -e 's/( |'$'\t'')*$//'
Then bn_prime.h was excluded since this is a generated file.
Note mkerr.pl has some changes in a heredoc for some help output, but
other lines there lack trailing whitespace too.

Some of these scripts would recognise an output parameter if it looks
like a file path. That works both in both the classic and new build
schemes. Some fo these scripts would only recognise it if it's a
basename (i.e. no directory component). Those need to be corrected,
as the output parameter in the new build scheme is more likely to
contain a directory component than not.
