For the field element types `FieldElement` and `Scalar`, use inherent
constants instead of (non-const) functions to return these constant
values.
It's likely the original functions predate support for inherent
constants, but now that they're available, they're a better fit for
these sort of constant values.
`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 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.
