Crypto module offers digital signing functionality with two algorithms: RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5 and ECDSA?

But for these we must have RSA or EC generated public/private key pairs.

As I understand crypto doesn't have functionality to generate the above pairs.

Can this be added to crypto module?

I see a similar question here: #15116. I would like to have RSA and EC, to be used with crypto's signing functionality.

I'll close this out as a duplicate of #15116. Can you comment in that issue that you would also like elliptic curve support? Pull requests also welcome, of course.
