secp256k1-sys: Document safety constraints

Functions that are `unsafe` should include a `# Safety` section. Because
we have wrapper functions to handle symbol renaming we essentially have
duplicate functions i.e., they require the same docs, instead of
duplicating the docs put the symbol renamed function below the
non-renamed function and add a docs linking to the non-renamed function.
Also add attribute to stop the linter warning about the missing safety
docs section.

Remove the clippy attribute for `missing_safety_doc`.
