Support of ECC curve 25519

The ECC curve 25519 will be needed for future projects to sign data structures.
Furthermore it was selected as a future option for TLS and therefore might become in widespread use for ECDHE usages.
The crypto card and all software stacks like ICSF CCA need to support the curve in hardware / software. Also the EKMF has to support generation and maintenance of key pairs for that curve including the use in X.509 certificates.
