The underlying issue does not affect our CI hosts, but is an issue on my
development machine (Arch Linux). In particular, this affects the vanilla
configuration of Docker on systemd, which has effectively no limit:
11400a3f5a/pkg/docker-engine/common/systemd/docker.service (L31)
I hope this saves future generations some precious hours of their life.
This commit switches to a new strategy to make sure we're installing the
most recent LLVM packages. Before this commit, we used the unversioned
LLVM packages (e.g., `clang` instead of `clang-18`), which are supposed
to provide the latest snapshot, but this is broken for arm64 [1],
which we want to add in a later PR.
Anyway, the new approach is cleaner because it does not require us to
fiddle with the installed `clang` package by removing a symlink.

Don't ask me why this makes a difference. It may be some permission
problem even though everything in Cirrus CI runs as root anyway. In
any case, I'll probably get mad if I investigate this further.
Fixes#1326.
Adds a test using the Wycheproof vectors as outlined in #1106. The
vectors are taken from the Wycheproof repo. We use a python script
to convert the JSON-formatted vectors into C code.

This adds MSVC builds built on Linux using wine. This requires some
settings of tools and flags because the autotools support for MSVC is
naturally somewhat limited.
The advantage of this approach is that it is compatible with our
existing CI scripts, so there's no need to write a Windows CI script
(in PowerShell or similar). If we want to test building and running on
Windows native (e.g., as supported by Cirrus CI) we could still do this
in the future.
Another advantage of this approach is that contributors can simply use
the docker image if they need a MSVC installation in a non-Windows
environment.
This commit also improves the Dockerfile by grouping RUN commands
according to Docker docs:

Pull request description:
This resolves#893, resolves#692 (and also resolvesbitcoin/bitcoin#22854).
- [x] Extract table generation to separate function in separate file (to be used by generation script and exhaustive tests)
- [x] Tidy up
- [x] Remove code that deals with non-static tables
- [x] Make functions that need ecmult_gen not depend on signing context
- [x] Rename stuff to make it fit the new structure and consistent with how we hande verification tables (#956)
- [x] Fix exhaustive tests
- [x] Make table generation function take generator as input
- [x] Overwrite the static tables with a table with custom generator in exhaustive tests
- [x] Overhaul script that generates table files
- [x] Make table generation function take PREC_BITS as input (I have some code already, just not yet in this branch)
- [x] Change generation script to generate three tables (for all three values of ECMULT_GEN_PREC_BITS)
- [x] Ship pre-built tables
- [x] Add pregenerated table file to repo
- [x] Remove generation of table file from build process (like in #956)
- [x] Remove left-over stuff (e.g., detecting a compiler running on the build machine) from build system
- [x] Final cleanups (copyright headers, commit, messages, etc.)
- [ ] (separate PR:) Make sure link-time optimization remove corresponding static tables (and code) when no signing/verifcation function is called
- [ ] (separate PR:) Compile precomputation as a separate object file and link it (https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/pull/988#issuecomment-977813538)
- [ ] (separate PR:) Document the backwards-compatible API changes made in this PR and in #956.
- [ ] Maybe deprecate the static context
