Before this commit, gen_context.c both included libsecp256k1-config.h
and basic-config.h: The former only to obtain ECMULT_GEN_PREC_BITS
and the latter to obtain a basic working configuration to be able to
use the library.
This was inelegant and confusing: It meant that basic-config.h needs
to #undef all the macros defined in libsecp256k1-config.h. Moreover,
it meant that basic-config.h cannot define ECMULT_GEN_PREC_BITS,
essentially making this file specific for use in gen_context.c.
After this commit, gen_context.c include only libsecp256k1-config.h.
basic-config.h is not necessary anymore for the modules used in
gen_context.c because 79f1f7a made the preprocessor detect all the
relevant config options.
On the way, we remove an unused #define in basic-config.h.

Pull request description:
This is a rebased and squashed version of #767, adding safegcd-based implementations of constant-time and variable-time modular inverses for scalars and field elements, by Peter Dettman. The PR is organized as follows:
* **Add secp256k1_ctz{32,64}_var functions** Introduction of ctz functions to util.h (which use `__builtin_ctz` on recent GCC and Clang, but fall back to using a software emulation using de Bruijn on other platforms). This isn't used anywhere in this commit, but does include tests.
* **Add safegcd based modular inverse modules** Add Peter Dettman's safegcd code from #767 (without some of his optimizations, which are moved to later commits), turned into separate modules by me.
* **Add extensive comments on the safegcd algorithm and implementation** Add a long description of the algorithm and optimizations to `doc/safegcd_implementation.md`, as well as additional comments to the code itself. It is probably best to review this together with the previous commit (they're separated to keep authorship).
* **Add tests for modinv modules** Adds tests on the modinv interface directly, for arbitrary moduli.
* **Improve bounds checks in modinv modules** Adds a lot of sanity checking to the modinv modules.
* **Move secp256k1_scalar_{inverse{_var},is_even} to per-impl files** A pure refactor to prepare for switching the field and scalar code to modinv.
* **Make field/scalar code use the new modinv modules for inverses** Actually switch over.
* **Add extra modular inverse tests** This adds modular inverse tests through the field/scalar interface, now that those use modinv.
* **Remove unused Jacobi symbol support** No longer needed.
* **Remove num/gmp support** Bye-bye.
* 3 commits with further optimizations.

The magnitude of the f and g variables generally goes down as the algorithm
progresses. Make use of this by keeping tracking how many limbs are used, and
when the number becomes small enough, make use of this to reduce the complexity
of arithmetic on them.
Refactored by: Pieter Wuille <pieter@wuille.net>
Both the field and scalar modulus can be written in signed{30,62} notation
with one or more zero limbs. Make use of this in the update_de function to
avoid a few wide multiplications when that is the case.
This doesn't appear to be a win in the 32-bit implementation, so only
do it for the 64-bit one.
Add a new run_inverse_tests that replaces all existing field/scalar inverse tests,
and tests a few identities for fixed inputs, small numbers (-999...999), random
inputs (structured and unstructured), as well as comparing with the output of
secp256k1_fe_inv_all_var.
This commit adds functions to verify and compare numbers in signed{30,62} notation,
and uses that to do more extensive bounds checking on various variables in the modinv
code.
This adds tests for the modinv{32,64}_impl.h directly (before the functions are used
inside the field/scalar code). It uses a naive implementation of modular multiplication
and gcds in order to verify the modular inverses themselves.
This adds a long comment explaining the algorithm and implementation choices by building
it up step by step in Python.
Comments in the code are also reworked/added, with references to the long explanation.

The experiment of using Nix Shell was not really successful. Most
notably, Nix uses a bunch of wrapper scripts around compilers, which
make the build much less "pure". This may be useful but it's exactly
not what we want for CI. In particular, this resulted in gcc being used
for the "clang" builds because a wrapper script redefined the CC env
variable.
This now builds a single docker image (Debian) for all architectures
that we test in CI on Linux.

This compiler flag is available for clang but not gcc.
Test plan:
```
autogen.sh
./configure
make check
CC=clang ./configure
make check
```
If a variable is used uninitialized, the warning should look something
like:
```
CC src/tests-tests.o
src/tests.c:4336:15: warning: variable 'recid' may be uninitialized when used here [-Wconditional-uninitialized]
CHECK(recid >= 0 && recid < 4);
^~~~~
./src/util.h:54:18: note: expanded from macro 'CHECK'
if (EXPECT(!(cond), 0)) { \
^~~~
./src/util.h:41:39: note: expanded from macro 'EXPECT'
^
src/tests.c:4327:14: note: initialize the variable 'recid' to silence this warning
int recid;
^
= 0
1 warning generated.
```
This was detected while running the tests with the `-Wconditional-uninitialized` flag
```
./autogen.sh
CC=clang CFLAGS="-Wconditional-uninitialized" ./configure
make check
```
The resulting warning is a false positive, but setting the value to -1
ensures that the CHECK below will fail if recid is never written to.
