The upstream libray has removed the assembly-based implementation of keccak. We need to maintain our own library to avoid a peformance regression. --------- Co-authored-by: lightclient <lightclient@protonmail.com>

This is a vendored and modified copy of golang.org/x/crypto/sha3, with an assembly
|
|
implementation of keccak256. We wish to retain the assembly implementation,
|
|
which was removed in v0.44.0.
|
|
|
|
Ethereum uses a 'legacy' variant of Keccak, which was defined before it became SHA3. As
|
|
such, we cannot use the standard library crypto/sha3 package.
