Contributions summary:Dimitrios integrated Dilithium, a post-quantum cryptography algorithm, into the repository. This involved adding external files, including API definitions and relevant header files, for Dilithium 2, 3, and 4. The user also implemented the necessary functions to enable Dilithium's keypair generation, signing, and verification processes within the project's framework. Furthermore, incremental hashing functionality using SHA3 was introduced.
