* Removed Scalar::{from_bits, from_bytes_clamped}; all constructible scalars are now reduced mod l
* Made Scalar::reduce() not pub; fixed test warning
* Added benches for scalar add/sub/mul
* Docs
* Added EdwardsPoint::mul_base_clamped and gated Scalar::from_bits behind legacy_compatibility
* Added unit test for Mul impl on unreduced Scalars
* Added Montgomery::mul_base_clamped
* Added BasepointTable::mul_base_clamped
* Removed invalid scalar arithmetic test; this functionality is no longer supported
* Made clamp_integer() const
* Updated readme and changelog
* Added BasepointTable::mul_base_clamped to tests
* Added proper deprecation notice to Scalar::from_bits; added legacy_compatibility to Makefile and docsrs flags
This saves 4 point doublings by unwrapping the first loop iteration,
as well as 63 field multiplications (one per iteration) by managing
curve model choice explicitly.
This begins to attempt to restructure the source tree so that the common parts
are common and the different parts are different.
The backend is now split into two parts:
- serial (containing the implementation using serial formulas and mixed-model arithmetic).
- vector (containing the implementation using parallel formulas and single-model arithmetic).
The serial scalar_mul tree is now under backend::serial::scalar_mul.
The avx2 scalar_mul tree is now under backend::avx2::scalar_mul.
