dkg-evrf Security Proofs (#681)

* Add audit statement for `dkg-evrf`

This doesn't cover the implementation, solely the academia and background.

Also moves the existing audit of the `crypto` folder for organizational
reasons.

+# eVRF DKG
+
+In 2024, the [eVRF paper](https://eprint.iacr.org/2024/397) was published to
+the IACR preprint server. Within it was a one-round unbiased DKG and a
+one-round unbiased threshold DKG. Unfortunately, both simply describe
+communication of the secret shares as 'Alice sends $s_b$ to Bob'. This causes,
+in practice, the need for an additional round of communication to occur where
+all participants confirm they received their secret shares.
+
+Within Serai, it was posited to use the same premises as the DDH eVRF itself to
+achieve a verifiable encryption scheme. This allows the secret shares to be
+posted to any 'bulletin board' (such as a blockchain) and for all observers to
+confirm:
+
+- A participant participated
+- The secret shares sent can be received by the intended recipient so long as
+  they can access the bulletin board
+
+Additionally, Serai desired a robust scheme (albeit with an biased key as the
+output, which is fine for our purposes). Accordingly, our implementation
+instantiates the threshold eVRF DKG from the eVRF paper, with our own proposal
+for verifiable encryption, with the caller allowed to decide the set of
+participants. They may:
+
+- Select everyone, collapsing to the non-threshold unbiased DKG from the eVRF
+  paper
+- Select a pre-determined set, collapsing to the threshold unbaised DKG from
+  the eVRF paper
+- Select a post-determined set (with any solution for the Common Subset
+  problem), allowing achieving a robust threshold biased DKG
+
+Note that the eVRF paper proposes using the eVRF to sample coefficients yet
+this is unnecessary when the resulting key will be biased. Any proof of
+knowledge for the coefficients, as necessary for their extraction within the
+security proofs, would be sufficient.
+
+MAGIC Grants contracted HashCloak to formalize Serai's proposal for a DKG and
+provide proofs for its security. This resulted in
+[this paper](<./Security Proofs.pdf>).
+
+Our implementation itself is then built on top of the audited
+[`generalized-bulletproofs`](https://github.com/kayabaNerve/monero-oxide/tree/generalized-bulletproofs/audits/crypto/generalized-bulletproofs)
+and
+[`generalized-bulletproofs-ec-gadgets`](https://github.com/monero-oxide/monero-oxide/tree/fcmp%2B%2B/audits/fcmps).
+
+Note we do not use the originally premised DDH eVRF yet the one premised on
+elliptic curve divisors, the methodology of which is commented on
+[here](https://github.com/monero-oxide/monero-oxide/tree/fcmp%2B%2B/audits/divisors).
+
+Our implementation itself is unaudited at this time however.
