FAEST + half-tree

This is the implementation that uses the half-tree technique to perform vector commitments used in the FAEST signature scheme.

The implementation is based on the FAEST reference implementation. This is proof-of-concept implementation. It may contain bugs and security issues. Please do not use in production systems.

Below is the original README.
