     * In general, you should use one of the pre-approved groups from
     * {@link JPAKEPrimeOrderGroups}, rather than manually constructing one.
     * 

     * The following basic checks are performed:
     * 

     * p-1 must be evenly divisible by q
     * g must be in [2, p-1]
     * g^q mod p must equal 1
     * p must be prime (within reasonably certainty)
     * q must be prime (within reasonably certainty)
     * 
     * 
     * The prime checks are performed using {@link BigInteger#isProbablePrime(int)},
     * and are therefore subject to the same probability guarantees.
     * 
     * These checks prevent trivial mistakes.
     * However, due to the small uncertainties if p and q are not prime,
     * advanced attacks are not prevented.
     * Use it at your own risk.
     *
     * @throws NullPointerException if any argument is null
     * @throws IllegalArgumentException if any of the above validations fail
