Closes https://github.com/serai-dex/serai/issues/17 by using the
PrimeFieldBits API to do so.
Should greatly speed up small batches, along with batches in the
hundreds. Saves almost a full second on the cross-group DLEq proof.
Doesn't fully utilize ec's hash2curve module as k256 Scalar doesn't have
FromOkm for some reason. The previously present bigint reduction is
preserved.
Updates ff/group to 0.12.
Premised on https://github.com/cfrg/draft-irtf-cfrg-frost/pull/205 being
merged, as while this Ed25519 is vector compliant, it's technically not
spec compliant due to that conflict.
Saves ~8% during FROST key gen, even with dropping a vartime for a
constant time (as needed to be secure), as the new batch verifier is
used where batch verification previously wasn't. The new multiexp API
itself also offered a very slight performance boost, which may solely be
a measurement error.
Handles most of https://github.com/serai-dex/serai/issues/10. The blame
function isn't binary searched nor randomly sorted yet.
