optiga+atecc: decouple from memory.h

So these C modules can be used in BB03 without relying on BB02 memory functions.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a software architecture cleanup: it moves some type definitions and helper functions so that secure-chip code (ATECC/Optiga) no longer depends directly on the BitBox02-specific memory module. The goal stated by the developer is to make those modules reusable in a future BitBox03. There is no direct evidence in the commit that it fixes a security vulnerability, changes cryptographic behavior, or introduces a bug.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as normal code-review item: verify that the new enum mappings and FFI wrappers are exercised by existing tests and that no stale `memory.h` includes remain in the secure-chip layer.

Security signals we found

01

No security-relevant signal: pure refactoring/abstraction change with equivalent runtime behavior.

02

Enum values for password-stretch algorithms are preserved (V0/V1 map one-to-one).

03

No new input parsing, no buffer size changes, no privilege changes, no cryptographic algorithm changes.

04

No vendor disclosure, CVE, or researcher attribution present in commit or references.
