Account

This file defines the Account abstract class and its companion object, which provides methods for creating and importing accounts using different signature schemes.

The [Account] class has the following abstract properties:

• [publicKey]: The public key of the account.

• [address]: The account address.

• [scheme]: The signature scheme used by the account.

The companion object provides the following methods:

• create(scheme: SignatureScheme = SignatureScheme.ED25519): Creates a new account using the specified signature scheme. Defaults to ED25519.

• import(privateKey: ByteArray, scheme: SignatureScheme = SignatureScheme.ED25519): Imports an account using the provided private key and signature scheme. Defaults to ED25519.

• import(phrase: String, scheme: SignatureScheme = SignatureScheme.ED25519): Imports an account using the provided mnemonic phrase and signature scheme. Defaults to ED25519.

• import(phrases: List<String>, scheme: SignatureScheme = SignatureScheme.ED25519): Imports an account using the provided list of mnemonic phrases and signature scheme. Defaults to ED25519.

The [create] and [import] methods throw a [SignatureSchemeNotSupportedException] if the specified signature scheme is not supported.
