Example

// Example usage:
const rawSignature = "0x487cdb8a88f2f4044b701cbb116075c4cabe5fe4657a6358b395c0aab70694db3453a8057e442bd1aff0ecabe8a82c831f0edd7f2158b7c1feb3de9b1f20309b1c";
const derSignature = toDerSignature(rawSignature);
console.log(derSignature); // Outputs the DER-encoded signature as a hex string
// "30440220487cdb8a88f2f4044b701cbb116075c4cabe5fe4657a6358b395c0aab70694db02203453a8057e442bd1aff0ecabe8a82c831f0edd7f2158b7c1feb3de9b1f20309b"
