/* makes a truly random prime of a given size (bits),
 *
 * Flags are as follows:
 *
 *   MP_PRIME_BBS      - make prime congruent to 3 mod 4
 *   MP_PRIME_SAFE     - make sure (p-1)/2 is prime as well (implies MP_PRIME_BBS)
 *   MP_PRIME_2MSB_ON  - make the 2nd highest bit one
 *
 * You have to supply a callback which fills in a buffer with random bytes.  "dat" is a parameter you can
 * have passed to the callback (e.g. a state or something).  This function doesn't use "dat" itself
 * so it can be NULL
