3.6.8 Simplify offset splitting
This wasn't done prior to be 'leaderless', as now the participant with the
lowest ID has an extra step, yet this is still trivial. There's also notable
performance benefits to not taking the previous dividing approach, which
performed an exp.

Offer a multi-DLEq proof which simply merges challenges for n underlying proofs
This converts proofs from 2n elements to 1+n.

Moves FROST over to it. Additionally, for FROST's binomial nonces, provides
a single DLEq proof (2, not 1+2 elements) by proving the discrete log equality
of their aggregate (with an appropriate binding factor). This may be split back
up depending on later commentary...

Support caching preprocesses in FROST (#190)
* Remove the explicit included participants from FROST

Now, whoever submits preprocesses becomes the signing set. Better separates
preprocess from sign, at the cost of slightly more annoying integrations
(Monero needs to now independently lagrange/offset its key images).

* Support caching preprocesses

Closes https://github.com/serai-dex/serai/issues/40.

I *could* have added a serialization trait to Algorithm and written a ton of
data to disk, while requiring Algorithm implementors also accept such work.
Instead, I moved preprocess to a seeded RNG (Chacha20) which should be as
secure as the regular RNG. Rebuilding from cache simply loads the previously
used Chacha seed, making the Algorithm oblivious to the fact it's being
rebuilt from a cache. This removes any requirements for it to be modified
while guaranteeing equivalency.

This builds on the last commit which delayed determining the signing set till
post-preprocess acquisition. Unfortunately, that commit did force preprocess
from ThresholdView to ThresholdKeys which had visible effects on Monero.

Serai will actually need delayed set determination for #163, and overall,
it remains better, hence it's inclusion.

* Document FROST preprocess caching

* Update ethereum to new FROST

* Fix bug in Monero offset calculation and update processor
