Blst has logical error in SigValidate in Go bindings

Impact Blst versions v0.3.0 through 0.3.10 failed to perform a signature group-check if the call to SigValidate in the Go bindings was complemented with a check for infinity. Formally speaking, infinity, or the identity element of the elliptic curve group, is a member of the group, and the group-check should allow it. An initial review of blst users on GitHub does not uncover any use of this function with the …

This was the result of the introduction of a new inversion formula in version v0.3.0. This source of these incorrect outputs was due to two issues: The amount of inner loop iterations was not sufficient for the algorithm to converge. …
