[PATCH v3 1/6] dm: crypto: Define UCLASS API for ECDSA signature verification

Define a UCLASS API for verifying ECDSA signatures. Unlike
UCLASS_MOD_EXP, which focuses strictly on modular exponentiation,
the ECDSA class focuses on verification. This is done so that it
better aligns with mach-specific implementations, such as stm32mp.
