Research direction

Start by inspecting the existing RSAPrivateKey::from_components API and its callers. The issue does not name files, tests, or acceptance criteria; clarify the builder-state design and what compatibility and validation behavior should count as done.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Would be feasible to add builder-state pattern over vararg for the from_components

It's kinda pain to remember n/e/d/primes placement and the type/lengths somewhat limit the footgun but regardless

Would be nicer to have

RSAPrivateKey::from_components()
 .n(..)
 .e(..)
 .d(..)
 .primes(..)
