2 solutions I guess;
- since
checksumis called inSumandSumcan return an error, we could do that if there is no data to hash. - refer to other Hash impl in Go std and see how Sum behaves with empty buffer.

Took a look at SHA256, turns out for conventional hashes hashing nothing makes sense, and provides a valid input. I think our choice is between returning 0 or throwing an error.

add in godoc a warning to say that this method may error (whereas Hash interface{} say it may not)

This PR proposes a solution to #304 by introducing an interface called
ArithmeticHashwith aWriteStringfunction that decomposes its message before writing it. Used for long fiatshamir challenge names and signatures.THE ABOVE IS OUTDATED: We decided on a more lightweight solution: the idea of keeping the hash interface but returning error on non-field-element input is held on to, but the decompose method is replaced with hashes to field.
