[Cryptech Tech] core size in cryptech.h

Ah, okay. I saw what appeared to be an extra 0:
#define MODEXP_CORE_SIZE          0x1000

The actual effect is nil, since it doesn't change MODEXP_ADDR_BASE,
and there isn't another math core at the moment, but feel free to
revert it.

Looking ahead, will modexp actually need as many as 4096 addresses? I
see prefixes from 0x000 to 0x400.

Coming at it from another angle, will the math segment need more than
2 cores of this size?
