Short Nonces in ECDSA #3

Description

@demining

Hello @Kajiyu ! I saw your work on GitHub and decided to write to you as I have questions.

When creating ECDSA, it happens that some devices generate short Nonce.
Approximately 2 ^ 243 - 2 ^ 244

Accordingly, if Nonces is short, then it must contain null at the beginning.
That is, the first 3 bits of the Nonce contain a beginning null.

Given the known signature values [R, S, H (e)], can we define and calculate if the Nonce is short?

Is there a way to find out information about the first 3 bits of Nonces?
