/*
 * The following gives an overview about the different building blocks of
 * Sphincs+ and how they are connected. In general, we always consider sequences of bytes
 * that are interpreted in the following manner (flattening the || operation, i.e.,
 * mapping the byte sequence of a strong type onto the underlying byte sequence of the containing strong type).
 * Only FORS indices are not seen as byte sequences.
 *
 * Sphincs+ secret key is built up like the following:
 * [SphincsSecretSeed || SphincsSecretPRF || SphincsPublicSeed || SphincsTreeNode] (the last chunk is the root node of Sphincs+' topmost XMSS tree)
 *
 * Sphincs+ public key is built up like the following:
 * [SphincsPublicSeed || SphincsTreeNode] (the last chunk is the root node of Sphincs+' topmost XMSS tree)]
 *
 * Sphincs+ signature is built up like the following:
 * [SphincsMessageRandomness (n bytes) || ForsSignature (k(a+1)*n = fors_signature_bytes bytes) || SphincsHypertreeSignature]. SphincsHypertreeSignature contains a total of
 * d SphincsXMSSSignatures, with (h+d*len)*n = xmss_signature_bytes bytes each.
 *
 * ForsSignature is built up like the following:
 * [<Leaf Secret of FORS Subtree 1>(n bytes) || SphincsAuthenticationPath (Subtree 1, a*n bytes) || ... || <Leaf Secret of FORS Subtree k>(n bytes) || SphincsAuthenticationPath (Subtree k, a*n bytes)]
 * We define no special type for the leaf secret. The leaf secret is the secret PRF output that is hashed to create a FORS subtree's leaf.
 *
 * SphincsXmssSignature is built up like the following:
 * [WotsSignature || SphincsAuthenticationPath]
 *
 * WotsSignature is built up like the following:
 * [WotsNode || ... || WotsNode] contains len WotsNodes, each of length n bytes.
