RFR: 8200219: Develop new tests for using new elliptic curves: curve25519 and curve448

[Sean Mullan]

A few comments so far; have not finished my review yet.

General comment:

Many of these tests test more than XDH. That is fine and good for 
increasing coverage, but have you looked through existing tests to see 
if you are duplicating anything we are already testing and maybe those 
tests could be removed or you could share the same code. One of the 
things we should be looking at is to figure out how to reduce the 
overall time the security tests take.

* KeyAgreementTest.java

128         // Uses platform supported provider to test interoperability.

What do you mean by "platform supported provider"? Isn't this based on 
the provider search order? So in some cases, you might be testing 
against the same provider and not really doing interop testing?

* KeySizeTest.java

You are generating some large keys - any issues with test timeouts? Do 
we need to test the generation of the keypairs? Could we use cached 
keypairs instead?
