As proposed in #426 this commit changes to include README.md into
the crate documentation instead of maintaining a carbon copy in
the code.
This helps to keep the documentation in a single place without
duplicating the documentation in multiple places leading to less
errors and out of date documentation.
Renames fiat backend directory to fiat_u64 and does the additional plumbing required to make fiat_{u32, u64}_backend equal alternatives.
Adds a few comments.
`println!` was removed in the test as the corresponding test for `u32` does not have it.

The functionality we were using is now contained in the `rand_core` crate, which
we already depend upon. As far as testing code goes, only benchmarks still
depend upon `rand`, as they use `thread_rng`.
`zeroize` is WASM-friendly as it has no dependencies on C compilers.
Instead uses Rust's own volatile write semantics and compiler fences to
ensure zeroization is not elided by the compiler.
This was more useful at the time when we were determining, e.g., optimal lookup
table sizes and could regenerate them more easily, but it came at a massive
complexity cost. It also meant that we were unable to implement backend
autoselection. This commit removes the `build.rs` entirely. In the future, a
different `build.rs` could be added that auto-selects a backend, but it seems
like the current default-u64 setup has been working fine.
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.
