When serializing the exponent or the modulus from a key,
BoxedUint::to_be_bytes
will return a slice padded with zeroes on the left because of its inner representation. Not every implementation out there will handle leading zeroes.This provides a
PublicKeyParts::n_bytes
/e_bytes
that will strip out those leading zeros.See #518 for more context.
