	 * and the

	 * - becomes the following sequence of bytes (in total somewhere between 68 and 72 bytes instead of 64 bytes):
	 *
	 * 0x30 len(z) 0x02 len(r) r 0x02 len(s) s
	 *	
	 * where:
	 *	
	 * - 0x30: is always the first byte of the DER encoded signature format (ASN.1 tag for sequence)
	 * 
	 * - len(z): is a single byte value, encoding the length in bytes of the sequence z (remaining list of bytes)
	 *   (from the first 0x02 to the end of the encoding); is a value between 0x43 and 0x46
	 *   
	 * - 0x02: is a fixed value indicating that an integer value will follow (ASN.1 tag for int)
	 * 
	 * - len(r): is a single byte value, encoding the length in bytes of r; 
	 *   Distinguished Encoding Rules (DER)-encoded integers are defined so that they can encode both positive and negative values  
	 *   (aka signed values). This means that the leftmost bit (aka most-significant bit in big-endian) indicates whether the value 
	 *   is positive (0) or negative (1).
	 *   For ECDSA, however, the r and s values are positive integers. So the leftmost bit must be a 0. If it's not, a 0x00  
	 *   padding byte must be added.
	 *   
	 *   Furthermore, DER require that integer values are represented in the shortest byte representation possible. This 
	 *   effectively prohibits the use of leading zeroes (0x00) if the leftmost bit was not set to 1.
	 *   
	 *   So len(r) will either be 0x21 (33 bytes), 0x20 (32 bytes) or less (mostly not less than 0x1F (31 bytes)).
	 *   Case 31 bytes or less: The leftmost bytes of the raw (non-DER-encoded) r are 0x00 and, according to DER, need to be 
	 *    			    			removed so that r is DER-encoded in the shortest possible way. Also, the leftmost bit of the 
	 *    						remaining byte array is 0 (-> a positive x-value).
	 *   Case 32 bytes: What we would normally expect, as the x- and y-coordinates are positive values of 32 bytes length. 
	 *   				The leftmost bit is set to 0 and the leftmost byte is not 0x00.
	 *   Case 33 bytes: A padding 0x00 byte was added as the most significant (leftmost) byte because the raw (non-DER-encoded) r
	 *   				 value had the leftmost bit set to 1, which would result in a negative value. 
	 *   
	 * - r: is the signed big-endian encoding of the value "r", of minimal length;
	 * 
	 * - 0x02: is a fixed value indicating that an integer value will follow (ASN.1 tag for int)
	 * 
	 * - len(s): is a single byte value, encoding the length in bytes of s;
	 *   (See further explanation of len(r) that applies as well for len(s))
	 *   
	 * - s: is the signed big-endian encoding of the value "s", of minimal length.
	 *
