This makes the default sign function easier to use while allowing more granular
control through sign_custom.
Tests for sign_custom follow in a later commit.

fc96aa73f5c7f62452847a31821890ff1f72a5a4 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

Valgrind does bit-level tracking of the "uninitialized" status of memory,
property tracks memory which is tainted by any uninitialized memory, and
warns if any branch or array access depends on an uninitialized bit.
That is exactly the verification we need on secret data to test for
constant-time behaviour. All we need to do is tell valgrind our
secret key is actually uninitialized memory.
This adds a valgrind_ctime_test which is compiled if valgrind is installed:
Run it with libtool --mode=execute:
$ libtool --mode=execute valgrind ./valgrind_ctime_test
