5acf6d23d3 `Parity` conversion and error handling cleanup (Martin Habovstiak)
Pull request description:
This removes the deprecated `From` conversion, replaces it with
`TryFrom`, and adds more convenience conversions. A new error type is
created for the invalid parity error with conversion to catch-all
`Error`.
This is intended for an API-breaking version.

Currently printing the `SharedSecret` using `Display` or `Debug` prints
the real secret, this is sub-optimal. We have a solution for other
secrets in the project where printing is obfuscated and we provide a
`display_secret` method for explicitly printing.
Mirror the logic for other secrets and obfuscate the `SharedSecret` when printing.
Improve rustdocs on `display_secret` by doing:
- Minor improvements to the rustdocs to aid readability in the editor.
- Do not guarantee (`assert_eq!`) debug output
The `serialize_secret` method is a getter method, it does not do any
serialisation. However we use the method on secret keys and key types so
in order for the name to be uniform use the descriptive name
`secret_bytes`.
Rename `serialize_secret` to be `secret_bytes`.
The identifier `i` is predominantly used for indexing an array but we
are using it as a place holder for the iterated value of an array that
is then printed. The identifier `byte` is more descriptive.
Done in preparation for adding similar code to the `ecdh` module.
In array initialisation we use magic number 64, this is the secret bytes
length multiplied by 2.
Please note; we still use the magic number 32, left as such because it
is used in various ways and its not immediately clear that using a
single const would be any more descriptive.
Use `SECRET_KEY_SIZE * 2` instead of magic number 64.
Hashing the debug output for secrets can be done with `bitcoin_hashes`
not just `std`. Mention this in the obfuscated string output when
neither are available.

d5eeb099ad Use more intuitive local var numbering (Tobin Harding)
834f63c26c Separate new_with_hash into public function (Tobin Harding)
Pull request description:
Currently `SharedSecret` provides a way to get a shared secret using SHA256 _as well as_ a way to use a custom hash function to get the shared secret. Internally `SharedSecret` uses a 256 byte buffer, this is a tad wasteful. We would like to keep the current functionality but reduce memory usage.
- Patch 1: Pulls the `new_with_hash` logic out into a standalone public function that just returns the 64 bytes representing the x,y co-ordinates of the computed shared secret point. Callers are then responsible for hashing this point to get the shared secret (idea by @Kixunil, thanks).
- Patch 2: Does trivial refactor
- Patch 3: Uses a 32 byte buffer internally for `SharedSecret`. This is basically a revert of the work @elichai did to add the custom hashing logic. @elichai please holla if you are not happy with me walking all over this code :)
### Note to reviewers
Secret obfuscation is done on top of this in https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-secp256k1/pull/396, they could be reviewed in order if this work is of interest to you.

e6cb588a23 Breaking: changed `Parity` serialization to `u8` (Martin Habovstiak)
Pull request description:
Serializing the value as `u8` is more compact but this is a breaking

The `SharedSecret` uses sha256 to hash the secret, this implies the
secret is 32 bytes of data.
Currently we use a buffer of 256 bytes, this is unnecessary.
Change the implementation of `SharedSecret` to use a 32 byte buffer.
In test code we use multiple pub/sec keys. It is more intuitive if the
'secret 1' is generated by the owner of secret key 1.
Refactor only, no logic changes.
In preparation for simplifying the `SharedSecret` internals pull the
`new_with_hash` function logic out into a standalone public function
that provides similar functionality without use of the `SharedSecret`
struct. Function now returns the 64 bytes of data representing a shared
point on the curve, callers are expected to the hash these bytes to get
a shared secret.
We are using `cfg_attr` to instruct the rustdocs build system to
highlight feature requirements for functions, there is no need to
explicitly mention feature requirements in the text.
Recently we fixed a bunch of feature gates to use `rand-std` instead
of `rand` but in doing so did not notice that the same feature gates
were using `alloc` which is meaningless if `std` is enabled.
Feature gate on `std` if we are using `rand-std`.

Pull request description:
In a continued effort to find my feet around here, and inspired by issue #128 I've done a codebase wide audit of the docs (primarily just rustdocs but I glanced at `//` docs as well). Each change is in a separate commit so can be removed if resistance is met. (_"resistance is futile"_).
I've based the stylistic decisions on [work done](https://github.com/rust-bitcoin/rust-bitcoin/pull/704) in rust-bitcoin.
I believe the only controversial change is the last (commit: da161c9 Use rust-bitcoin module doc style), please review that one carefully.

4c43d5e20f Add custom Debug impl for RecoverableSignature (Tobin Harding)

Currently when debug printing the `RecoverableSignature` we do so byte by byte, this means that the output differs depending on the endianess of the machine. If instead we serialize the signature in compact form then the output is the same irrespective of the endianess.

```
cargo test test_debug_output --features=recovery

applied
```

But if we put the same code in a standalone binary it fails as expected?
Since the running of this test is _unusual_ and it is primarily meant as
an entry point example to the library, remove the mention of "alloc"
feature and just depend upon "std".

Our API often involves a `Secp256k1` parameter, when users enable the
`global-context` feature they must then pass `SECP256K1` into these
functions. This is kind of clunky since the global is by definition
available everywhere.
Make the API more ergonomic for `global-context` builds by adding
various API functions/methods that use the global context implicitly.
The global context is already in scope in tests since we use a glob
import. No clue why Clippy does not warn for this.
Remove unnecessary import statement in test function.
Recently we introduced uniform styling for module docs over in
`rust-bitcoin` repo. We can do the same here but its a bit controversial
because it removes the heading from module docs and every single public
module in rust-secp256k1 uses a heading. Instead we use a full
sentences. Also makes uniform the trailing `//!`.
As is typical in the Rust ecosystem use the third person tense when
documenting functions. E.g.,
```
/// Creates a new Foo.
```
As opposed to
```
/// Create a new Foo.
```
Example relies on `rand-std` not plain `rand` dependency.

Now that we opportunistically randomize the context on creation if
`rand-std` is enabled it would be nice to encourage users who do not
wish to use `rand-std` to randomize the context. We already have an API
to do this but it requires a separate call to do so. Instead of adding a
bunch of additional constructors elect to add documentation to the
current constructors guiding users towards randomization.
We recently implemented opportunistic randomization of the context
object if the the `rand-std` feature is enabled. Both for the global
context and also for signing context constructors.
Add documentation about `rand-std` feature in relation to the context
object.
Instead of providing a mechanism for users to opt out of randomization
we can just feature gate the call site i.e., opportunistically randomize
the global context on creation if `rand-std` feature is enabled.
