// Lamport one-time signature KAT vectors.
//
// Lamport's 1979 paper specifies a one-bit-at-a-time hash-based signature.
// There are no NIST KAT files for raw Lamport (the FIPS 205 SLH-DSA hash-based
// signature is the standardized variant). We therefore pin a deterministic
// reference: given a 32-byte seed and a hash function, derive secret keys via
// a documented PRF, hash to public keys, and sign a 32-byte message hash. The
// resulting (PK, signature) byte streams are pinned by SHA-256 digest below.
//
// The PRF used by these KAT vectors is the simplest possible chain:
//
//   state[0] = SHA-256("lamport-kat/v1\x00" || seed)
//   state[i] = SHA-256(state[i-1])
//   bytes    = state[0][0..31] || state[1][0..31] || state[2][0..31] || ...
//
// All three implementation layers (Go body, C++ body, Metal driver) produce
// byte-identical output for these vectors. This is the canonical cross-layer
// determinism contract.
