>Environment:
>Description:
1. wg-keygen (no arguments) should have a randomized property test of the fixed bits.
2. wg-keygen --pub is a deterministic function which needs known-answer tests.  (Plain wg-keygen and wg-keygen --psk should maybe also have seed-determinized tests.)
3. wg-keygen grabs its X25519 scalarmult routine (crypto_scalarmult_curve25519) from libssh, which it really shouldn't; libssh is an unstable private library of openssh.  We should either get it from OpenSSL, or maybe reachover into the kernel libsodium code.
>How-To-Repeat:
code inspection
>Fix:
Yes, please!
