Recent compilers compile the two new functions to very efficient code
on various platforms. In particular, already GCC >= 5 and clang >= 5
understand do this for the read function, which is the one critical
for performance (called 16 times per SHA256 transform).
Fixes#1080.

Pull request description:
Should be merged before #995 if we want this.
I suspect the only change here which is debatable on a conceptual level is the renaming. I can drop this of course.

The vector has been taken from https://www.di-mgt.com.au/sha_testvectors.html.
It can be independently verified using the following Python code.
```
h = hashlib.sha256()
for i in range(1_000_000):
h.update(b'a')
print(h.hexdigest())
```
This avoids that the SHA256 implementation would produce wrong paddings
and thus wrong digests for messages of length >= 2^32 bytes on 32-bit
platforms.
This is not exploitable in any way since the SHA256 API is an internal
API and we never call it with that long messages.

- Trades 1 _half for 3 _mul_int and 2 _normalize_weak

070e772211 Faster fixed-input ecmult tests (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
Given how much #920 slowed down the tests with low iteration count, replace it with 3 different similar test:
* count >= 1: a test with 1024 multiplies that tests any pattern of 6 bits in windows not more than 20 bits wide
* count >= 3: a test with 2048 multiplies that tests any pattern of 8 consecutive bits
* count >= 35: the old test (which effectively tests all 2-bit patterns)

On the way, we restore the name of the function. It was mistakenly

5f2efe684e secp256k1_testrand_int(2**N) -> secp256k1_testrand_bits(N) (Pieter Wuille)
Pull request description:
Just some easy low-hanging fruit. It's complete overkill to use the RFC6979 RNG for our test randomness. Replace it with a modern non-cryptographic RNG with good properties. It's a few % speedup for me.
Given the internal naming of all these functions to be "testrand", I'm not concerned about the risk of someone using this for something that needs actual cryptographic randomness.
