/* This file defines a function that parses DER with various errors and
* violations. This is not a part of the library itself, because the allowed
* violations are chosen arbitrarily and do not follow or establish any
* standard.
*
* In many places it matters that different implementations do not only accept
* the same set of valid signatures, but also reject the same set of signatures.
* The only means to accomplish that is by strictly obeying a standard, and not
* accepting anything else.
*
* Nonetheless, sometimes there is a need for compatibility with systems that
* use signatures which do not strictly obey DER. The snippet below shows how
* certain violations are easily supported. You may need to adapt it.
*
* Do not use this for new systems. Use well-defined DER or compact signatures
* instead if you have the choice (see secp256k1_ecdsa_signature_parse_der and
* secp256k1_ecdsa_signature_parse_compact).
*
* The supported violations are:
* - All numbers are parsed as nonnegative integers, even though X.609-0207
* section 8.3.3 specifies that integers are always encoded as two's
* complement.
* - Integers can have length 0, even though section 8.3.1 says they can't.
* - Integers with overly long padding are accepted, violation section
* 8.3.2.
* - 127-byte long length descriptors are accepted, even though section
* 8.1.3.5.c says that they are not.
* - Trailing garbage data inside or after the signature is ignored.
* - The length descriptor of the sequence is ignored.
*
* Compared to for example OpenSSL, many violations are NOT supported:
* - Using overly long tag descriptors for the sequence or integers inside,
* violating section 8.1.2.2.
* - Encoding primitive integers as constructed values, violating section
* 8.3.1.

* This function will accept any valid DER encoded signature, even if the

* which violate the DER spec in various ways. Its purpose is to allow

* the set of supported violations is a strict subset of what OpenSSL will
* accept.
*
* After the call, sig will always be initialized. If parsing failed or the
* encoded numbers are out of range, signature validation with it is
* guaranteed to fail for every message and public key.
