Problem
Establishing a CASE session requires support for
P256Keypair::ECDH_derive_secret()
function which wasdisabled for platforms which define MBEDTLS_ECP_ALT. It is quite common on embedded devices equipped with
dedicated crypto chips to provide custom ECP implementation. As a result, an attempt to resolve a device address or send a ZCL message would fail for nRF Connect-based accessories (other platforms such as Qorvo are probably affected, too).
