The previous code is correct and harmless to initialize an array with a
non-terminated character sequence using a string literal.
However, it requires exactly specifying the array size, which can be
cumbersome.
Also, GCC-15 may issue the -Wunterminated-string-initialization warning.
[1]
Fix both issues by using array initialization. This refactoring commit
does not change behavior.
[1] Example warning:
src/modules/schnorrsig/main_impl.h:48:46: error: initializer-string for array of 'unsigned char' is too long [-Werror=unterminated-string-initialization]
48 | static const unsigned char bip340_algo[13] = "BIP0340/nonce";
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This should hopefully be useful as orientation for users implementing
the key exchange part of BIP324. Conceptually the example is not very
different to the ECDH one, so a lot of code/comments are just copied
(e.g. context creation, secret key generation, shared secret comparison,
console output, cleanup with secret key clearing).
This change simplifies running examples on Windows, because the DLL
must reside either in the same folder where the executable is or
somewhere in PATH.

It is a non-Libtool-specific way to explicitly specify the user's
intention to consume a static `libseck256k1`.
This change allows to get rid of MSVC linker warnings LNK4217 and
LNK4286. Also, it makes possible to merge the `SECP256K1_API` and
`SECP256K1_API_VAR` into one.
An executable target in the `COMMAND` option will automatically be
replaced by the location of the executable created at build time.
This change fixes tests for Windows binaries using Wine.

From [IRC](https://gnusha.org/secp256k1/2023-01-31.log):
> 06:29 \< hebasto\> What are reasons to define the `SECP256K1_INLINE` macro in user's `include/secp256k1.h` header, while it is used internally only?
> 06:32 \< hebasto\> I mean, any other (or a new dedicated) header in `src` looks more appropriate, no?
> 06:35 \< sipa\> I think it may just predate any "utility" internal headers.
> 06:42 \< sipa\> I think it makes sense to move it to util.h
Pros:
- it is a step in direction to better organized headers (in context of #924, #1039)
Cons:
- code duplication for `SECP256K1_GNUC_PREREQ` macro

Besides improving the examples, this makes sure that the examples
import a variable (instead of a function), namely the static context,
from the library. This is helpful when testing MSVC builds, because
the MSVC linker tends to be awkward when importing variables.
