Merge #845: Extract the secret key from a keypair

33cb3c2b1f Add secret key extraction from keypair to constant time tests (Elichai Turkel)
36d9dc1e8e Add seckey extraction from keypair to the extrakeys tests (Elichai Turkel)
fc96aa73f5 Add a function to extract the secretkey from a keypair (Elichai Turkel)

Pull request description:

  With schnorrsig if you need to tweak the secret key (for BIP32) you must use the keypair API to get compatible secret/public keys which you do by calling `secp256k1_keypair_xonly_tweak_add()`, but after that there's no currently a way to extract the secret key back for storage.
  so I added a `secp256k1_keypair_seckey` function to extract the key
