Pull request description:
This PR is an initial attempt to more thoroughly test our public API.
Add examples to various types/methods/functions in the key module.
I'm not entirely sure when is enough, do we want an example on every single public method, function, and type or is this overkill. In this PR I tried to find a balance by doing ever method/function that took an argument that is a custom type from this lib. I think this should be extended to include return values too though ...
Thanks to @thomaseizinger for the idea!
First 2 patches are docs improvements to `lib.rs`.

We recently patched much of the docs in the `key` module, lets attempt
to attain perfection.
Improve docs by doing:
- Use full stops
- Use 100 character column width
- Use plural third person tense
- Use plural for section headings
- Fix any grammar mistakes
- Use code ticks and links as appropriate
Done in an effort to better test our public API.
Add tests in the `Examples` section as is idiomatic in the Rust
ecosystem.
Make other minor improvements to any rusdocs we touch:
- Use full stops
- Use 100 character column width
- Use plural third person tense
- Use plural for section headings
Improve method docs by doing:
- Remove 'batch' comment
- Remove mention of required features, docs already show this
- Use links to types as well as ticks
Recently we made a wee mess with the `Parity` opaque type. Let's fix it
up by doing:
- Use an enum with variants `Even` and `Odd`.
- Add explicit conversion methods to/from u8 and i32
- Implement `BitXor`
Note: This patch is an API breaking change that does _not_ follow the
deprecation guidelines. Rust does not allow deprecating `From` impl
blocks AFAICT.

Recently we deprecated a bunch of methods/functions. We are still
calling them in test code. Found by Clippy.
Use the shiny new methods/functions instead of the deprecated ones.
We have deprecated all other functions that use the identifier
'schnorrsig' but we missed `generate_schnorrsig_keypair`.
This function is purely a helper function and serves no real purpose
other than to reduce two lines of code to a single line. Downstream
users can write this function themselves if they need it.
Also, we recently added a new public method to `KeyPair` to get the
public key in a slightly more ergonomic fashion. Use `kp.public_key()`
when replacing usage of now deprecated `generate_schnorrsig_keypair`
function.
Currently to get the `XOnlyPublicKey` from a `KeyPair` users must do
`XOnlyPublicKey::from_keypair(&kp)`. While this does the job we can make
the lib more ergonomic by providing a method directly on `KeyPair` that
calls through to `XOnlyPublicKey::from_keypair`.
Add method `KeyPair::public_key(&self)`.
314e8755df Clarify `global-context` feature (Martin Habovstiak)
d52ab85dd5 Added missing features to docs.rs config (Martin Habovstiak)
Pull request description:
Sadly, I missed two details in #353: features missing in docs.rs configuration and `global-context` being a bit confusing.
This PR fixes those, see commit messages for details.

Previously only `global-context-less-secure` was shown in the doc even
though `global-context` may also work. This was strictly correct because
`global-context` implies `global-context-less-secure` which is also
documented but people could miss it or forget about it and then worry
about security or worse, enable less secure feature.
Calling out both fetures seems useful, even important and thankfully
doesn't seem to cause too much noise in the docs.
Currently we have an implementation of `Debug` (also used by `Display`)
for `Signature` that first converts the sig to a `SerializedSignature`
then prints it as hex.
We would like to have an implementation of `Debug` for
`SerializedSignature`, this cannot be derived because of the `data: [u8;
field]`. We can manually implement `Debug` for `SerializedSignature`
exactly as it is currently done for `Signature` and call this new
implementation from `Signature::fmt()`.
This code path is already tested in `lib.rs` in the test function
`signature_display`.
Rustc can warn us when we forget to add `Copy` and `Deubg` trait
implementations to types.
Add lint directives to enable warnings for missing `Copy` and `Debug`
implementations. Use the newly emitted warnings to find types that do
not implement our 'standard' traits. These 'standard' traits are defined
as the set of attributes that it has been found beneficial to
opportunistically add to all types, these are
- Copy
- Clone
- Debug
- PartialEq and Eq
- PartialOrd and Ord
- Hash
e595b39510 Re-export Parity struct (sanket1729)

pub struct Parity is under a private module key and not re-exported in lib.rs . It is therefore not

This documents the Cargo features making sure docs.rs shows warning for
feature-gated items. They are also explicitly spelled out in the crate
documentation.
It is not immediately apparent what 'err == 1' means, one must determine
that the FFI function call returns 1 for success. We can help readers of
the code by adding a 'Return' section to the method documentation.
Add trailing full stop to method docs initial line also.
Two functions in the FFI secp code return and accept a parity int.
Currently we are manually converting this to a bool. Doing so forces
readers of the code to think what the bool means even though
understanding this bool is not needed since in is just passed back down
to the FFI code. We can abstract this away by using an opaque type to
hold the original int and not converting it to a boolean value.
Add 'Return' and 'Error' sections to `tweak_add_assign` while fixing the
docs to describe the new opaque parity type.
We have two `tweak_add_assign` methods (one for keypair and one for
x-only pubkey). Both check the return value from a FFI function call.
We can make both sites uniform to _slightly_ reduce cognitive load when
reading the code.
Use C style code to make it obvious to readers that this is basically C
code.
There are currently two unit tests in the `schnorr` module that are
testing keys from the `key` module. This is possible because the tests
are only testing the public interface, none the less they are better
placed in the `key` module.
The import statements can be simplified by using an import
wildcard (`super::*`). While we are at it put them in std, external
crate, this crate order.
21aa914ad2 Change context objects for schnorr sig methods (sanket1729)

- Scondly, and importantly the XonlyPublicKey::from_keypair now operates
without any context objects.
The public key is unrelated to the signature algorithm. It will
be moved out of the module in another commit. For ease of review,
the renamed is kept separate.
