Avoid square challenges and forking in inner product argument
This modifies the scheme to be almost identical to the construction
outlined in Appenix A.2 of "Proof-Carrying Data from Accumulation
Schemes" (https://eprint.iacr.org/2020/499). The only remaining
difference is that we do not compute [v] U but instead subtract
[v] G_0 from the commitment before opening.
