Serialization with no_std #66
Description
When the serialization feature is enabled, pqcrypto will include the serde crate. The serde crate includes std as a default feature. This means that it's not possible to use pqcrypto with serialization in a no_std environment.
Would it be possible disable standard features in the serde dependency? i.e. serde = { version = "1.0", default-features = false, features = ["derive"] }?
Edit: I tried this with a fork and it's throwing a number of errors. Looking for any alternative on how to achieve serialization/deserialization in a no_std environment.
Compilation error with
serde = { version = "1.0", default-features = false, features = ["derive", "alloc"], optional = true }
