With HRSS-SXY, the sampling algorithm now longer has to be the same
between the two parties. Therefore we can change it at will (as long as
it remains reasonably uniform) and thus take the opportunity to make the
output distribution flatter.

In [1], section 5.1, an optimised re-encryption process is given. In the
code, this simplifies to not needing to rebuild the ciphertext at all.
Thanks to John Schanck for pointing this out.

Since the underlying operation is deterministic the confirmation hash
isn't needed and SXY didn't use it in their proof.

This change includes support for a variant of [HRSS], a post-quantum KEM
based on NTRU. It includes changes suggested in [SXY]. This is not yet
ready for any deployment: some breaking changes, like removing the
confirmation hash, are still planned.
