- `expand_message_xmd` [(spec)](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-irtf-cfrg-hash-to-curve-11#section-5.4.1) produces a uniformly random byte string using a cryptographic hash function H that outputs b bits..
```ts
function expand_message_xmd(
msg: Uint8Array, DST: Uint8Array, lenInBytes: number, H: CHash
): Uint8Array;
function expand_message_xof(
msg: Uint8Array, DST: Uint8Array, lenInBytes: number, k: number, H: CHash

- `hash_to_field(msg, count, options)` [(spec)](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-irtf-cfrg-hash-to-curve-11#section-5.3)
hashes arbitrary-length byte strings to a list of one or more elements of a finite field F.
* `msg` a byte string containing the message to hash
* `count` the number of elements of F to output
* `options` `{DST: string, p: bigint, m: number, k: number, expand: 'xmd' | 'xof', hash: H}`
* Returns `[u_0, ..., u_(count - 1)]`, a list of field elements.
hashes arbitrary-length byte strings to a list of one or more elements of a finite field F.

- `bigint` is no longer allowed in `getPublicKey`, `sign`, `verify`. Reason: ed25519 is LE, can lead to bugs
