/**
 * @fileoverview SM2 Key Pair Management Utilities
 * 
 * This module provides utilities for managing SM2 key pairs in the Multikey format,
 * implementing the W3C Multikey specification for cryptographic key representation.
 * It focuses on secure and interoperable key pair handling with specific support
 * for the SM2 algorithm.
 * 
 * Key Features:
 * - Multikey format import/export
 * - Compressed public key support
 * - Multibase/Multicodec encoding
 * - Key metadata management
 * - Format validation and conversion
 * 
 * Security Considerations:
 * - Private key protection during export
 * - Format validation to prevent injection
 * - Safe key material handling
 * - Prefix verification for type safety
 * - Error isolation and handling
 * 
 * Performance Notes:
 * - Efficient key compression
 * - Minimal memory allocations
 * - Lazy key decompression
 * - Optimized encoding/decoding
 * 
 * Usage Example:
 * ```javascript
 * import { exportKeyPair, importKeyPair } from './key-pair.js';
 * 
 * // Export a key pair to Multikey format
 * const keyPair = {
 *   publicKey: Buffer.alloc(64),  // x||y coordinates
 *   secretKey: Buffer.alloc(32),  // private key
 *   id: 'key-1',
 *   controller: 'did:example:123'
 * };
 * const exported = exportKeyPair({ keyPair, secretKey: true });
 * 
 * // Import from Multikey format
 * const imported = importKeyPair({
 *   publicKeyMultibase: exported.publicKeyMultibase,
 *   secretKeyMultibase: exported.secretKeyMultibase,
 *   id: exported.id,
 *   controller: exported.controller
 * });
 * ```
 * 
 * Standards Compliance:
 * - W3C Multikey Specification
 * - Multicodec Specification
 * - Multibase Specification
 * - GM/T 0009-2012: SM2 Digital Signature Algorithm
 * - JSON-LD 1.1 Context Definition
 *

/**
 * Export a key pair to the Multikey format
 * 
 * This function exports an SM2 key pair to the standardized Multikey format,
 * which provides a secure and interoperable representation of cryptographic
 * keys. It handles key compression, encoding, and metadata management.
 * 
 * Processing Steps:
 * 1. Validate input parameters
 * 2. Compress public key (reduces size by 50%)
 * 3. Encode keys with Multicodec prefixes
 * 4. Convert to Multibase format
 * 5. Add metadata (id, controller)
 * 
 * Output Format:
 * ```json
 * {
 *   "type": "Multikey",
 *   "@context": "https://w3id.org/security/multikey/v1",
 *   "publicKeyMultibase": "z...",  // Compressed, prefixed, multibase
 *   "secretKeyMultibase": "z...",  // Optional, if secretKey=true
 *   "id": "key-1",                 // Optional
 *   "controller": "did:example:123" // Optional
 * }
 * ```
 * 
 * Security Considerations:
 * - Private key is only included if explicitly requested
 * - All inputs are validated before processing
 * - Key compression uses constant-time operations
 * - Proper error isolation and handling
 * 
 * Performance Notes:
 * - Public key compression reduces size by 50%
 * - Minimal memory allocations
 * - Efficient encoding operations
 * - Early validation for fast failure
 * 
 * @param {Object} options - Export options
 * @param {Object} options.keyPair - Key pair to export
 * @param {Buffer} options.keyPair.publicKey - Public key (uncompressed, 64 bytes)
 * @param {Buffer} [options.keyPair.secretKey] - Private key (32 bytes)
 * @param {string} [options.keyPair.id] - Key identifier
 * @param {string} [options.keyPair.controller] - Controller identifier
 * @param {boolean} [options.secretKey=false] - Whether to export private key
 * @returns {object} Exported key pair in Multikey format
 * @throws {TypeError} If key pair format is incorrect
 * @throws {KeyError} If no public key is available
 * 
 * @example
 * ```javascript
 * // Export public key only
 * const publicOnly = exportKeyPair({
 *   keyPair: {
 *     publicKey: publicKeyBuffer,
 *     id: 'key-1',
 *     controller: 'did:example:123'

 * // Export with private key
 * const withPrivate = exportKeyPair({

 *     publicKey: publicKeyBuffer,
 *     secretKey: privateKeyBuffer,
 *     controller: 'did:example:123'
 *   },

/**
 * Import a key pair from Multikey format
 * 
 * This function imports an SM2 key pair from the Multikey format, performing
 * comprehensive validation and format conversion. It handles key decompression,
 * decoding, and metadata extraction.
 * 
 * Processing Steps:
 * 1. Validate input parameters and types
 * 2. Decode Multibase-encoded keys
 * 3. Verify Multicodec prefixes
 * 4. Decompress public key
 * 5. Construct key pair object
 * 
 * Input Format:
 * ```json
 * {
 *   "publicKeyMultibase": "z...",  // Required, compressed public key
 *   "secretKeyMultibase": "z...",  // Optional, private key
 *   "id": "key-1",                 // Optional
 *   "controller": "did:example:123" // Required
 * }
 * ```

 * Security Considerations:
 * - Validates all input parameters
 * - Verifies key type prefixes
 * - Ensures proper key lengths
 * - Handles decompression errors
 * - Isolates format errors
