Bug when using new reduced-size SPHINCS+ parameter sets #59

@crypto4a

Description

@crypto4a

There is an issue with the existing reference implementation when experimenting with the new reduced-signature size SPHINCS+ parameter sets due to the fact that some of the new parameter sets utilize large subtree sizes (i.e., > 16) that result in the address.c::set_keypair_addr() function not setting all of the necessary bits as it only copies over the first two bytes.

In general, you may want to modify all ADDR-handling functions to ensure they copy over, or set, all of the bytes of each of the ADDR fields to ensure this doesn't happen.
