Make secp256k1_scalar_add_bit conditional; make secp256k1_scalar_split_lambda_var constant time

This has the effect of making `secp256k1_scalar_mul_shift_var` constant
time in both input scalars. Keep the _var name because it is NOT constant
time in the shift amount.

As used in `secp256k1_scalar_split_lambda_var`, the shift is always
the constant 272, so this function becomes constant time, and it
loses the `_var` suffix.
