/**
 * AERE PQC precompile: Falcon HashToPoint (FIPS 206 / NIST Falcon round-3) at 0x0AE7.
 *
 * <p>HashToPoint is the SHAKE256-driven map from a (nonce, message) pair to a challenge polynomial
 * {@code c} in Z_q[x]/(x^n+1), q = 12289. It is the single most expensive step of an on-chain
 * Falcon verification: a hand-rolled Solidity Falcon-512 verify spends the bulk of its ~10.5M gas
 * inside the in-EVM Keccak-f[1600] permutations that drive this rejection sampler. Exposing it
 * natively lets a Solidity Falcon verifier replace that whole loop with one ~500-gas staticcall,
 * collapsing per-auth Falcon cost.
 *
 * <p>Input layout: {@code logn(1) || nonce(40) || message(rest)} where {@code logn} is 9
 * (Falcon-512, n=512) or 10 (Falcon-1024, n=1024). Output: {@code n} coefficients, each a
 * big-endian uint16 in [0, q), i.e. {@code 2*n} bytes. Malformed input (length &lt; 41, or logn not
 * in {9,10}) returns EMPTY (0x).
 *
 * <p>Algorithm (matches the reference {@code hash_to_point_vartime} exactly): absorb
 * {@code nonce || message} into a SHAKE256 sponge, then repeatedly squeeze two bytes, interpret
 * them as a big-endian 16-bit value {@code w}, and keep {@code w mod q} whenever {@code w < 5q =
 * 61445}, until n coefficients are collected. Uses the audited Bouncy Castle SHAKE256 XOF.
