Update to PKCS#11 v3.0

[jariq]

PKCS#11 v3.0 has been published as OASIS standard and as a result Pkcs11Interop can be updated to officially support this version of PKCS#11 specification. However I have currently no intention to do that because:

1. I'm not aware of a real-world PKCS#11 library implementing this version of specification
2. I personally don't need to use any of the new features from this version of specification

These intentions might of course change over the time or if a vendor willing to sponsor this work is found.

There's seems to be an ongoing effort to add PKCS#11 v3.0 support to ykcs11: Yubico/yubico-piv-tool#308

Utimaco also upgraded to v3.0. As far as I'm aware, their R2 version won't get new updates anymore.

Actually PKCS#11 v3.0 has real world usages. For example using CKM_EDDSA for generating EDDSA keypair for Cardano blockchain wallets.
I hope you decide to upgrade to v3.0.

EDDSA for Nebula mesh network using the Noise protocol, for both the CA and the clients. https://github.com/slackhq/nebula

Hope Pkcs11Interop will support soon the PKCS11 v3.0 specification. @VahidShir is right. The EDDSA algorithm for example is already widely used in many real world scenarios

Hi, just curious if there are any plans to update to PKCS11 v3.0 in the near future?
