As part of excising BIGNUM from EC scalars, we will need a "words"
version of BN_mod_mul_montgomery. That, in turn, requires BN_sqr and
BN_mul for cases where we don't have bn_mul_mont.
BN_sqr and BN_mul have a lot of logic in there, with the most complex
cases being not even remotely constant time. Fortunately, those only
apply to RSA-sized numbers, not EC-sized numbers. (With the exception, I
believe, of 32-bit P-521 which just barely exceeds the cutoff.) Imposing
a limit also makes it easier to stack-allocate temporaries (BN_CTX
serves a similar purpose in BIGNUM).
Extract bn_mul_small and bn_sqr_small and test them as part of
bn_tests.txt. Later changes will build on these.
If we end up reusing these functions for RSA in the future (though that
would require tending to the egregiously non-constant-time code in the
no-asm build), we probably want to extract a version where there is an
explicit tmp parameter as in bn_sqr_normal rather than the stack bits.
