Solves this issue #172
The class
ProjectIdentifierDerivation
is used to derive a shared secret between two parties.Using the shared secret, the parties can derive a new public key that is unique to the two parties but only the receiver can derive the private key.
This PR will change the way we generate the Angor project identifier in such a way that it will be impossible to link an transaction that is an investment to the Angor key.
Thanks to @vernorvinge for suggesting this design to break the link between the founder and Angor addresses
