* 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 is the name we adopted for a similar feature in @RustCrypto.
It's a bit less jargony and also leaves the door open in the future to
other types of precomputed tables.
* Add `basepoint-tables` crate feature
Feature-gates the inclusion of basepoint tables under a
`basepoint-tables` feature, with the goal of reducing code size for e.g.
embedded applications.
* Add `mul_base` method to `EdwardsPoint` and `RistrettoPoint`
Provides fixed-base scalar multiplication which optionally uses
precomputed basepoint tables when the `basepoint-tables` feature is
enabled, providing 4X better performance.
Falls back on variable-base scalar multiplication in the event the
feature is disabled.

Previously `alloc` implicitly activated `zeroize` via `zeroize/alloc`.
This commit switches to weak feature activation as added in Rust 1.60,
only activating `zeroize/alloc` if the `zeroize` dependency is
explicitly activated (which it is by default).
build.rs was using cfg(target) but it has to evaluate this from env TARGET
as build.rs cfg(target) in build context is the builder host and not the target.
This change fixes curve25519_dalek_bits lottery to determine the correct
automatic curve25119_dalek_bits with the help of platforms crate.
As discussed in #456 this also prepares for well known defaults for wasm and
arm serial backend via cfg(curve25519_dalek_bits = "64")
If the wasm32 or armv7 are going to be u64 serial by default these will be
followed up on later.
* Restructure README and CHANGELOG
* Explain semver policy
* Specify feature flags and backends more explicitly
* Remove nightly from the CI bc that didn't belong there
* Add @pinkforest to thankyou list

As proposed in #442 this makes `digest` an
optional feature that is not covered by the
SemVer public API stability guarantees.

As suggested in #453 it is sometimes feasible to
select the backend bits via an override.
This change provides `cfg(curve25519_dalek_bits)`
to override the bits used in serial or fiat target backend.
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.
