This is what prompted me to do the other work in the other crypto modules.
This adds scrypt to the library of key derivation functions. I have only 1 scrypt function test in scrypt_test.v because the other tests from RFC-7914 take a long time, 3 minutes on my machine. The other tests in scrypt_test.v are exercising internal functionality that is not public. I will put these slower scrypt function tests in the slower_tests repo after this gets committed (assuming that it does get accepted, of course).
The fact that scrypt is time and/or memory intensive is not a bug. It is for the purpose of making scrypt generated keys more resistant to brute force attacks.
