Based upon the discussion in this thread, I don't see a reason to include the
longer MAC version.  Certainly not as a MTI, maybe not defined *at all*

At this point, it's just a question of ECDSA vs EdDSA.

I prefer EdDSA going forward, but acknowledge that the current state of
hardware acceleration, library support, and provisioning system preferences
means that ECDSA is here with us for some time.
