This commit tries to achieve separation of signature- and key-related types, previously mixed in a single ECDSA module.
Rationale: bitcoin key types are not specific for signature algorithm.
This is achieved through
- Remove key mod with its content moved to ecdsa mod
- Re-export keys under key module in util mod - to make git generate diff for the rename of ecdsa mod in the next commit correctly.
106acdc3ac Add fuzzing for Witness struct (Riccardo Casatta)
2fd0125bfa Introduce Witness struct mainly to improve ser/de performance while keeping most usability. (Riccardo Casatta)
Pull request description:
At the moment the Witness struct is `Vec<Vec<u8>>`, the vec inside a vec cause a lot of allocations, specifically:
- empty witness -> 1 allocation, while an empty vec doesn't allocate, the outer vec is not empty
- witness with n elements -> n+1 allocations
The proposed Witness struct contains the serialized format of the witness. This reduces the allocations to:
- empty witness -> 0 allocations
- witness with n elements -> 1 allocation for most common cases (you don't know how many bytes is long the entire witness beforehand, thus you need to estimate a good value, not too big to avoid wasting space and not too low to avoid vector reallocation, I used 128 since it covers about 80% of cases on mainnet)
The inconvenience is having slightly less comfortable access to the witness, but the iterator is efficient (no allocations) and you can always collect the iteration to have a Vec of slices. If you collect the iteration you end up doing allocation anyway, but the rationale is that it is an operation you need to do rarely while ser/de is done much more often.
I had to add a bigger block to better see the improvement (ae860247e191e2136d7c87382f78c96e0908d700), these are the results of the benches on my machine:

```
With an increased performance to deserialize a block of about 21% and to serialize a block of about 16% (seems even higher than expected, need to do more tests to confirm, I'll appreciate tests results from reviewers)

Witness struct is in place of the Vec<Vec<u8>> we have before this commit.
from_vec() and to_vec() methods are provided to switch between this type and Vec<Vec<u8>>
Moreover, implementation of Default, Iterator and others allows to have similar behaviour but
using a single Vec prevent many allocations during deserialization which in turns results in
better performance, even 20% better perfomance on recent block.
last() and second_to_last() allows to access respective element without going through costly Vec
transformation
This is the initial step towards using and maybe enforcing clippy.
It does not fix all lints as some are not applicable. They may be
explicitly ignored later.
Calls to `unwrap` outside of tests are typically unfavourable.
Hash engines do not error when calling `consensus_encode`. Instead of
the current usage of `unwrap` we can use `expect` with a descriptive
string as is done in other parts of the codebase.
Docs can always do with a bit of love.
Clean up the module level (`//!`) rustdocs for all public modules.
I claim uniform is better than any specific method/style. I tried to fit
in with what ever was either most sane of most prevalent, therefore
attaining uniformity without unnecessary code churn (one exception being
the changes to headings described below).
Notes:
* Headings - use heading as a regular sentence for all modules e.g.,
```
//! Bitcoin network messages.
```
as opposed to
```
//! # Bitcoin Network Messages
```
It was not clear which style to use so I picked a 'random' mature
project and copied their style.
* Added 'This module' in _most_ places as the start of the module
description, however I was not religious about this one.
* Fixed line length if necessary since most of our code seems to follow
short (80 char) line lengths for comments anyways.
* Added periods and fixed obvious (and sometimes not so obvious)
grammatically errors.
* Added a trailing `//!` to every block since this was almost universal
already. I don't really like this one but I'm guessing it is Andrew's
preferred style since its on the copyright notices as well.
Based on the original work by Justin Moon.
*MSRV unchanged from 1.29.0.*
When `std` is off, `no-std` must be on, and we use the [`alloc`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/alloc/) and core2 crates. The `alloc` crate requires the user define a global allocator.
* Import from `core` and `alloc` instead of `std`
* `alloc` only used if `no-std` is on
* Create `std` feature
* Create `no-std` feature which adds a core2 dependency to polyfill `std::io` features. This is an experimental feature and should be
used with caution.
* CI runs tests `no-std`
* MSRV for `no-std` is 1.51 or so
For p2wsh the scriptCode is the witness script, but for p2wpkh, it's the
equivalent legacy p2pkh output script.
The name scriptCode is used in the BIP, so it's less confusing.

Previously this structure was unused, it's now being used by the `TxIn`
structure to simplify the code a little bit and avoid confusions. Also
the rust-lightning source code has an `OutPoint` similar to this one
but with the `vout` index as an `u16` to avoid unsafe conversions.
I've added to new methods to `OutPoint`:
- `null`: Creates a new "null" `OutPoint`.
- `is_null`: Checks if the given `OutPoint` is null.

Addresses #96.
Turns out it was being used for hex encoding/decoding, so replaced that with the `hex` crate.
i chose to import the `decode` method as:
```
use hex::decode as hex_decode
```
so that it is clear to the reader what is being decoded when it is called. "decode" is such a generic sounding function name that it would get confusing otherwise.
This resolves an very unergonomic API by allowing iteration over a
Transaction being signed's inputs without needing to take a
conflicting reference to the transaction.
The API is still relateively unsafe in that its very easy to
generate bogus sighashes with it, but this is much better than it
was, and its not clear how to fix it further.
