    • Updated EdDSA operations to comply with draft 02 of draft-ietf-jose-cfrg-curves-02.

Example RSA SMF to CRT usage:

%% The following map of an RSA secret key is in SMF (Straightforward Method) form.
%% Notice that we only have d, e, and n for this secret key.
JWK = jose_jwk:from(#{
  <<"d">> => <<"WSAGFGM7fSyYn5NyBL0dp3kjHjQ3djjhQoOAFasoyeE">>,

  <<"kty">> => <<"RSA">>,
  <<"n">> => <<"0PM6Aooi_KYkDA1r-S24SauFpfTRc5kiPLF3a1EhuY8">>
}).

%% If we convert it back to a map, it is now in CRT (Chinese Remainder Theorem) form.
%% Notice that the dp, dq, p, q, and qi have been restored.
element(2, jose_jwk:to_map(JWK)) =:= #{
  <<"d">> => <<"WSAGFGM7fSyYn5NyBL0dp3kjHjQ3djjhQoOAFasoyeE">>,
