Hello,
Initially inspired by Péter Szabó work from 2017, but made with general approach:
· Curve25519/Ed25519 implementation based on TweetNaCl version 20140427, old Google's curve25519_donna dropped as unnecessary, saves a lot of size.
· SHA512 reused from LibTomCrypt, no need to keep own copy
· Sign/Verify require no additional memory allocation
· Dropbear's API made ~similar to LibTomCrypt devel to ease possible switch, if necessary. Anyway, LibTomCrypt is based on TweetNaCl as well.
· Default private key path is key/etc/dropbear/dropbear_ed25519_host_key
· Implemented general import from / export to OpenSSH private keys, can be reused for other key types on necessary
· Implemented *25519 fuzzers, but still need corresponding data from dropbear-fuzzcorpus
· Man, license, commens updated to fit Ed25519
So far, DROPBEAR_CURVE25519 increases dropbear binary by ~2,5Kb on X86-64 vs ~8Kb of current curve25519_donna implementation.
DROPBEAR_ED25519 adds ~7,5Kb to dropbear and ~1kB to dropbearconvert for OpenSSH import/export.

Review and/or any suggestios will be highly appreciated.
Thank you and
