So this is first attempt at making bls backend configurable in runtime.
With this approach, when running conversions from byte-types to backend-specific types
Backendenum value must be specified. This leads to various issues, e.g.:TryFrom<PublicKeyBytes> for PublicKey, as backend must be known before doing conversion.DefaultforPublicKey- again, backend must be specified.Ahas field with typePublicKey, it is impossible to implementDefaulttrait for such struct - backend must be known to create properPublicKey.Another approach is described here #182
