This pull request refactors construction of ECDSA public and private key objects using standard Java Cryptography Architecture classes in place of Bouncy Castle classes.
These changes address some of the concerns raised in issue #973, reducing direct references to the Bouncy Castle library. Separate work is required to address other Bouncy Castle references.
The implementation introduces a new shared
ECDSAKeyFactoryclass with methods for constructingPrivateKeyandPublicKeyobjects from source material and the associated NIST Elliptic Curve. This approach reduces duplicated code from several methods that create ECDSA key objects.
