These two constants are unnecessarily typed. This flows through all the way to the kem/kyber/kyberN packages where they cause PrivateKeySize and PublicKeySize to also be unnecessarily typed.

@armfazh This change should not break compatibility, but it will break compatibility if we need to reintroduce types on these constants for some reason later on. I don't have strong feelings either way. What do you think?

Since these are constants (rather than variables) then I think is safe to keep them untyped.
