This is a backwards-compatible API change: Before this commit, a context
initialized for signing was required to call functions that rely on
ecmult_gen. After this commit, this is no longer necessary because the
static ecmult_gen table is always present. In practice this means that
the corresponding functions will just work instead of calling the
illegal callback when given a context which is not (officially)
initialized for signing.
This is in line with 6815761, which made the analogous change with
respect to ecmult and contexts initialized for signing. But as opposed
to 681571, which removed the ecmult context entirely, we cannot remove
the ecmult_gen context entirely because it is still used for random
blinding. Moreover, since the secp256k1_context_no_precomp context is
const and cannot meaningfully support random blinding, we refrain (for
now) from changing its API, i.e., the illegal callback will still be
called when trying to use ecmult_gen operations with the static
secp256k1_context_no_precomp context.

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
