As a business application developer
I want to use post-quantum crypto algorithms with Fabric
So that the integrity of business data is maintained as quantum computing technology advances

NIST has selected some quantum-resistant cryptography algorithms:

It would be good for Fabric to support use of one or more of these algorithms (or future recommendations) as an alternative (or in addition) to the existing ECDSA cryptography for securing messages and ledger data. This could also extend to the cryptography used for secure (TLS) gRPC connections, although that might be better tracked as a separate issue.

Current post-quantum crypto algorithms are available as a Golang module here:

#3880, maybe for post-quantum crypto algorithms we can impl in a specific repo as decouple bccsp from fabric repo?
