Uses 256 bits of entropy as the secret exponent to derive a private key and encode as a compressed WIF which will be used as the hdseed for Bitcoin Core wallets.

There is a very small chance that you'll make an invalid key that is zero or bigger than the order of the curve. If this occurs, software should hard fail (forcing users should iterate to the next index).

Taking 64 bytes of the HMAC digest, the first 32 bytes are the chain code, and second 32 bytes are the private key for BIP32 XPRV value. Child number, depth, and parent fingerprint are forced to zero.
