/// Zero-knowledge proof that the one or more encrypted values is each in the a priori known set of
/// admissible values. (Admissible values may differ among encrypted values.)
///
/// # Construction
///
/// In short, a proof is constructed almost identically to [Borromean ring signatures] by
/// Maxwell and Poelstra, with the only major difference being that we work on ElGamal ciphertexts
/// instead of group elements (= public keys).
///
/// A proof consists of one or more *rings*. Each ring proves than a certain
/// ElGamal ciphertext `E = (R, B)` for public key `K` in a group with generator `G`
/// encrypts one of distinct admissible values `x_0`, `x_1`, ..., `x_n`.
/// `K` and `G` are shared among rings, admissible values are generally not.
/// Different rings may have different number of admissible values.
///
/// ## Single ring
///
/// A ring is a challenge `e_0` and a set of responses `s_0`, `s_1`, ..., `s_n`, which
/// must satisfy the following verification procedure:
///
/// For each `j` in `0..=n`, compute
///
/// ```text
/// R_G(j) = [s_j]G - [e_j]R;
/// R_K(j) = [s_j]K - [e_j](B - [x_j]G);
/// e_{j+1} = H(j, R_G(j), R_K(j));
/// ```
///
/// Here, `H` is a cryptographic hash function. The ring is valid if `e_0 = e_{n+1}`.
///
/// This construction is almost identical to [Abe–Ohkubo–Suzuki ring signatures][ring],
/// with the only difference that two group elements are hashed on each iteration instead of one.
/// If admissible values consist of a single value, this protocol reduces to
/// [`LogEqualityProof`] / Chaum–Pedersen protocol.
///
/// As with "ordinary" ring signatures, constructing a ring is only feasible when knowing
/// additional *trapdoor information*. Namely, the prover must know
///
/// ```text
/// r = dlog_G(R) = dlog_K(B - [x_j]G)
/// ```
///
/// for a certain `j`. (This discrete log `r` is the random scalar used in ElGamal encryption.)
/// With this info, the prover constructs the ring as follows:
///
/// 1. Select random scalar `x` and compute `R_G(j) = [x]G`, `R_K(j) = [x]K`.
/// 2. Compute `e_{j+1}`, ... `e_n`, ..., `e_j` ("wrapping" around `e_0 = e_{n+1}`)
///    as per verification formulas. `s_*` scalars are selected uniformly at random.
/// 3. Compute `s_j` using the trapdoor information: `s_j = x + e_j * r`.
///
/// ## Multiple rings
///
/// Transformation to multiple rings is analogous to one in [Borromean ring signatures].
/// Namely, challenge `e_0` is shared among all rings and is computed by hashing
/// values of `R_G` and `R_K` with the maximum index for each of the rings.
///
/// # Applications
///
/// ## Voting protocols
///
/// [`EncryptedChoice`](crate::app::EncryptedChoice) uses `RingProof` to prove that all encrypted
/// values are Boolean (0 or 1). Using a common challenge allows to reduce proof size by ~33%.
///
/// ## Range proofs
///
/// See [`RangeProof`](crate::RangeProof).
///
/// # Implementation details
///
/// - The proof is serialized as the common challenge `e_0` followed by `s_i` scalars for
///   all the rings.
/// - Standalone proof generation and verification are not exposed in public crate APIs.
///   Rather, proofs are part of large protocols, such as [`PublicKey::encrypt_bool()`] /
///   [`PublicKey::verify_bool()`].
/// - The context of the proof is set using [`Transcript`] APIs, which provides hash functions
///   in the protocol described above. Importantly, the proof itself commits to encrypted values
///   and ring indexes, but not to the admissible values across the rings. This must be taken
///   care of in a higher-level protocol, and this is the case for protocols exposed by the crate.
