When a downstream crate enables the `subtle` feature in `hybrid-array`,
the crate would fail to compile:
```
src/algorithms/pss.rs:375:31
|
375 | if (salt_valid & h0.ct_eq(h)).into() {
| ----- ^ expected `&Array<u8, ...>`, found `&mut [u8]`
| |
| arguments to this method are incorrect
|
= note: expected reference `&Array<u8, <D as OutputSizeUser>::OutputSize>`
found mutable reference `&mut [u8]`
```
This is because the `hybrid_array::Array` was automatically deref'ed to
a slice. Now `Array` implements `subtle::ConstantTimeEq` that automatic
deref no longer happens.
This commit fixes that by converting one of the arguments of the
conversion that brings back the auto-deref.
