The serial (`u32`/`u64`) implementations use a multiple curve models, passing
between extended and projective coordinates when performing addition and
doubling (respectively). But the AVX2 backend doesn't, so in order to write a
single scalar mult implementation, we have to either abstract over the curve
models or have two implementations.
A generic solution is possible but extremely unreadable: the scalar mul
implementation would be parameterized over the point types used by the serial
implementations, with many where clauses describing how the types relate. The
AVX2 types could then be substituted in the appropriate places.
Instead we just duplicate the code into the `avx2` backend.
This should contain generic implementations of scalar multiplication algorithms
that can be used with multiple backends. The goal is to move the existing
scalar multiplication code into this submodule, then call it from the
user-facing API. This can also contain code for things we can't do now, like
multiscalar multiplication with precomputation.
