I'm curious to know, why is the crypto/ECDH module not included in the root directory of the project? Is there a specific reason for this decision? Given the importance of secure cryptographic exchanges in modern applications, wouldn't it make sense to have it readily accessible from the root? Or is there perhaps a technical limitation that prevents it from being placed there? Clarifying this point would help me understand the project's structure and architecture better.

Due to this, `crypto/ecdh` is not automatically installed when you set up a Go environment.

One such library is the `crypto/ecdh` package, which is not a part of the standard Go library.
