[crypto] Eliminate temporary carry space for big integer multiplication
An n-bit multiplication product may be added to up to two n-bit
integers without exceeding the range of a (2n)-bit integer:
(2^n - 1)*(2^n - 1) + (2^n - 1) + (2^n - 1) = 2^(2n) - 1
Exploit this to perform big integer multiplication in constant time
without requiring the caller to provide temporary carry space.
