The only thing the `signature` crate uses `alloc` for is the `Signature::to_vec` method, which is trivially accomplished otherwise as `sig.as_ref().to_vec()` or various other ways. By getting rid of it, we can completely get rid of the `alloc` feature, and with that reduce the MSRV back to 1.31. It might be worth considering a 1.0 release with a higher MSRV so we can leverage `TryFrom`, but for now, this provides wider compatibility by removing a single (mis)feature.
RustCrypto: signatures
Traits which provide generic, object-safe APIs for generating and verifying digital signatures.
All algorithms reside in the separate crates and implemented using traits from
the signature crate. Additionally all crates do
not require the standard library (i.e. no_std capable) and can be easily used
for bare-metal or WebAssembly programming.
