Create a dedicated crate for the DKG (#141)
* Add dkg crate

* Remove F_len and G_len

They're generally no longer used.

* Replace hash_to_vec with a provided method around associated type H: Digest

Part of trying to minimize this trait so it can be moved elsewhere. Vec, 
which isn't std, may have been a blocker.

* Encrypt secret shares within the FROST library

Reduces requirements on callers in order to be correct.

* Update usage of Zeroize within FROST

* Inline functions in key_gen

There was no reason to have them separated as they were. sign probably 
has the same statement available, yet that isn't the focus right now.

* Add a ciphersuite package which provides hash_to_F

* Set the Ciphersuite version to something valid

* Have ed448 export Scalar/FieldElement/Point at the top level

* Move FROST over to Ciphersuite

* Correct usage of ff in ciphersuite

* Correct documentation handling

* Move Schnorr signatures to their own crate

* Remove unused feature from schnorr

* Fix Schnorr tests

* Split DKG into a separate crate

* Add serialize to Commitments and SecretShare

Helper for buf = vec![]; .write(buf).unwrap(); buf

* Move FROST over to the new dkg crate

* Update Monero lib to latest FROST

* Correct ethereum's usage of features

* Add serialize to GeneratorProof

* Add serialize helper function to FROST

* Rename AddendumSerialize to WriteAddendum

* Update processor

* Slight fix to processor

# Modular FROST
A modular implementation of FROST for any curve with a ff/group API.
Additionally, custom algorithms may be specified so any signature reducible to
Schnorr-like may be used with FROST.
A Schnorr algorithm is provided, of the form (R, s) where `s = r + cx`, which
allows specifying the challenge format. This is intended to easily allow
integrating with existing systems.
This library offers ciphersuites compatible with the
[IETF draft](https://github.com/cfrg/draft-irtf-cfrg-frost). Currently, version
11 is supported.
