The idea is to use the simple program that is expected to be modified
rarely to set a breakpoint in a specific line and check that the
function mbedtls_zeroize() does actually set the buffer to 0 and is not
optimised out by the compiler.
Initializing arrays using non-constant expressions is not permitted in
C89, and was causing errors when compiling with Metrowerks CodeWarrior
(for classic MacOS) in C89 mode. Clang also produces a warning when
compiling with '-Wc99-extensions':
test/benchmark.c:670:42: warning: initializer for aggregate is not a compile-time constant [-Wc99-extensions]
const unsigned char *dhm_P[] = { dhm_P_2048, dhm_P_3072 };
^~~~~~~~~~
test/benchmark.c:674:42: warning: initializer for aggregate is not a compile-time constant [-Wc99-extensions]
const unsigned char *dhm_G[] = { dhm_G_2048, dhm_G_3072 };
^~~~~~~~~~
Declaring the arrays as 'static' makes them constant expressions.

The _ext suffix suggests "new arguments", but the new functions have
the same arguments. Use _ret instead, to convey that the difference is
that the new functions return a value.
Conflict resolution:
* ChangeLog: put the new entries in their rightful place.
* library/x509write_crt.c: the change in development was whitespace
only, so use the one from the iotssl-1251 feature branch.
* public/pr/1136:
Timing self test: shorten redundant tests
Timing self test: increased duration
Timing self test: increased tolerance
Timing unit tests: more protection against infinite loops
Unit test for mbedtls_timing_hardclock
New timing unit tests
selftest: allow excluding a subset of the tests
selftest: allow running a subset of the tests
selftest: refactor to separate the list of tests from the logic
Timing self test: print some diagnosis information
mbedtls_timing_get_timer: don't use uninitialized memory
timing interface documentation: minor clarifications
Timing: fix mbedtls_set_alarm(0) on Unix/POSIX
MSVC rightfully complained that there was some conversion from `size_t`
to `unsigned int` that could come with a loss of data. This commit
re-types the corresponding struct field `ctx_buffer::len` to `size_t`.
Also, the function `ctx_buffer_append` has an integer return value
which is supposed to be the (positive) length of the appended data
on success, and a check is inserted that the data to be appended does
not exceed MAX_INT in length.
