/*-
 * We generate DH parameters as follows
 * find a prime p which is prime_len bits long,
 * where q=(p-1)/2 is also prime.
 * In the following we assume that g is not 0, 1 or p-1, since it
 * would generate only trivial subgroups.
 * For this case, g is a generator of the order-q subgroup if
 * g^q mod p == 1.
 * Or in terms of the Legendre symbol: (g/p) == 1.
 *
 * Having said all that,
 * there is another special case method for the generators 2, 3 and 5.
 * Using the quadratic reciprocity law it is possible to solve
 * (g/p) == 1 for the special values 2, 3, 5:
 * (2/p) == 1 if p mod 8 == 1 or 7.
 * (3/p) == 1 if p mod 12 == 1 or 11.
 * (5/p) == 1 if p mod 5 == 1 or 4.
 * See for instance: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legendre_symbol
 *
 * Since all safe primes > 7 must satisfy p mod 12 == 11
 * and all safe primes > 11 must satisfy p mod 5 != 1
 * we can further improve the condition for g = 2, 3 and 5:
 * for 2, p mod 24 == 23
 * for 3, p mod 12 == 11
 * for 5, p mod 60 == 59
