Shouldn't there be a check that a curve is selected? I.e. a check for an error
should be added?

Shouldn't there be a size check of ndigits?

Can you please use crypto_get_default_rng / crypto_rng_get_bytes /
crypto_put_default_rng?

Is a byteswap faster than a copy operation by looping through priv/privkey and
simply assinging the value?
