*
* Determinstic DSA key derivation with psa_generate_derived_key follows
* FIPS 186-4 §B.1.2: interpret the byte string as integer
* in big-endian order. Discard it if it is not in the range
* [0, *N* - 2] where *N* is the boundary of the private key domain
* (the prime *p* for Diffie-Hellman, the subprime *q* for DSA,
* or the order of the curve's base point for ECC).
* Add 1 to the resulting integer and use this as the private key *x*.
