Describe the improvement
Hi there,

Is there a chance to use the Ed25519 keys to authenticate? Binance has implemented them July 2023.
There's a description here but I didn't manage to implement it in python: https://binance-docs.github.io/apidocs/spot/en/#signed-trade-user_data-and-margin-endpoint-security

Thanks a lot for your work everyone ( @sammchardy )

To implement
Adding Ed25519 keys for binance-python project

Challenging part
Ed25519 is supported by newer Python version in Crypto module, but importKey function doesn't deal with that well...

This is the announcement post:
https://www.binance.com/en/support/announcement/binance-now-supports-ed25519-api-keys-2023-07-19-30372026b6af4fbbb9b38ab5c3f91755

Users are advised to switch to Ed25519 API keys as they offer optimized API performance and enhanced security
