ECDSA converts digests to scalars by taking the leftmost n bits, where n
is the number of bits in the group order. This does not necessarily
produce a fully-reduced scalar.
Montgomery multiplication actually tolerates this slightly looser bound,
so we did not bother with the conditional subtraction. However, this
subtraction is free compared to the multiplication, inversion, and base
point multiplication. Simplify things by keeping it fully-reduced.

This has no behavior change, but it has a semantic one. This CL is an

Specifically:
- Functions that do not touch top/width are assumed to not care.
- Functions that do touch top/width will be changed by this CL. These
should be checked in review that they tolerate non-minimal BIGNUMs.
Subsequent CLs will start adjusting the widths that BIGNUM functions
output, to fix timing leaks.

The fiat-crypto-generated code uses the Montgomery form implementation
strategy, for both 32-bit and 64-bit code.
64-bit throughput seems slower, but the difference is smaller than noise between repetitions (-2%?)
32-bit throughput has decreased significantly for ECDH (-40%). I am
attributing this to the change from varibale-time scalar multiplication
to constant-time scalar multiplication. Due to the same bottleneck,
ECDSA verification still uses the old code (otherwise there would have
been a 60% throughput decrease). On the other hand, ECDSA signing
throughput has increased slightly (+10%), perhaps due to the use of a
precomputed table of multiples of the base point.

Along the way, this allows us to tidy up the invariants associated with
EC_SCALAR. They were fuzzy around ec_point_mul_scalar and some
computations starting from the digest in ECDSA. The latter I've put into
the type system with EC_LOOSE_SCALAR.
As for the former, Andres points out that particular EC implementations
are only good for scalars within a certain range, otherwise you may need
extra work to avoid the doubling case. To simplify curve
implementations, we reduce them fully rather than do the looser bit size
check, so they can have the stronger precondition to work with.

None of the asymmetric crypto we inherented from OpenSSL is
constant-time because of BIGNUM. BIGNUM chops leading zeros off the
front of everything, so we end up leaking information about the first
word, in theory. BIGNUM functions additionally tend to take the full
range of inputs and then call into BN_nnmod at various points.
All our secret values should be acted on in constant-time, but k in
ECDSA is a particularly sensitive value. So, ecdsa_sign_setup, in an
attempt to mitigate the BIGNUM leaks, would add a couple copies of the
order.
This does not work at all. k is used to compute two values: k^-1 and kG.
The first operation when computing k^-1 is to call BN_nnmod if k is out
of range. The entry point to our tuned constant-time curve
implementations is to call BN_nnmod if the scalar has too many bits,
which this causes. The result is both corrections are immediately undone
but cause us to do more variable-time work in the meantime.
Replace all these computations around k with the word-based functions
added in the various preceding CLs. In doing so, replace the BN_mod_mul
calls (which internally call BN_nnmod) with Montgomery reduction. We can
avoid taking k^-1 out of Montgomery form, which combines nicely with
Brian Smith's trick in 3426d10119. Along
the way, we avoid some unnecessary mallocs.
BIGNUM still affects the private key itself, as well as the EC_POINTs.
But this should hopefully be much better now. Also it's 10% faster:

I still need to revive the original CL, but right now I'm interested in
giving every EC_GROUP an order_mont and having different ownership of
that field between built-in and custom groups is kind of a nuisance. If
I'm going to do that anyway, better to avoid computing the entire
EC_GROUP in one go.
I'm using some manual locking rather than CRYPTO_once here so that it
behaves well in the face of malloc errors. Not that we especially care,
but it was easy to do.
This speeds up our ECDH benchmark a bit which otherwise must construct the
EC_GROUP each time (matching real world usage).
