Merge rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1#493: Add method `SecretKey::from_hashed_data`

5417fad7cb Add method SecretKey::from_hashed_data (Tobin C. Harding)

Pull request description:

  Analogous to the method on `Message`; add a constructor method on `SecretKey` that hashes the input data.

  While we are at it improve the rustdocs on `Message::from_hashed_data` so docs on both methods are uniform.

  Fix: #487
