Pull request description:
This pull request fixes a bug which allows the `sh` variable to be used uninitialised
when sscanf(3) returns EOF.

dcf3920 Fix ability to compile tests without -DVERIFY. (Gregory Maxwell)
Pull request description:
Broken by 3f3964e4.
It's important that the tests are also run without -DVERIFY due to
the possibility that side-effects of a VERIFY_CHECK fix a bug that
would otherwise be detected.
Use of the verify_check macro in tests isn't sufficient.

9ab96f7 Use trivial algorithm in ecmult_multi if scratch space is small (Jonas Nick)
Pull request description:
`ecmult_multi` already selects the trivial algorithm if the scratch space is NULL. With this PR the trivial algorithm is also selected if the scratch space is too small to use pippenger or strauss instead of returning 0. That makes it more easier to avoid consensus relevant inconsistencies just because scratch space construction was messed up.

8b3841c fix bug in fread() failure check (Don Viszneki)
cddef0c tests: add warning message when /dev/urandom fails (Don Viszneki)
Pull request description:
I've made two small changes to `src/tests.c` circa random seed generation.
Added a warning when `/dev/urandom` fails, mostly to defend against the case that someone should use the code verbatim, but also to enhance its illustrative power.
Also I fixed a bug with how the return value of `fread()` was being evaluated. In fact, `/dev/urandom` was never being applied before as the check on the return value of `fread()` always failed!

Before this commit secp256k1_context_randomize called illegal_callback
when called on a context not initialized for signing. This is not
documented. Moreover, it is not desirable because non-signing contexts
may use randomization in the future.
This commit makes secp256k1_context_randomize a noop in this case. This
is safe because the context cannot be used for signing anyway.
This fixes#573 and it fixesrust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1#82.
the two middle arguments to fread() are easily confused, and cause the
checking of return value to fail incorrectly (and possibly succeed
incorrectly.)

The only reason OpenSSL 1.1 was not supported was the removal of direct
access to r and s in ECDSA_SIG. This commit adds a simplified version of
ECDSA_SIG_get0 for < 1.1 that can be used like ECDSA_SIG_get0 in >= 1.1
