Research direction

The issue names no files or tests; start by locating CyberChef's existing RSA signing and verification operations and their tests. Compare their inputs and outputs with the requested PEM keys, SHA-256/SHA-384/SHA-512 choices, message, and signature, then verify that both ECDSA operations produce the specified signature or verification result.
