exhaustive tests: remove erroneous comment from ecdsa_sig_sign

Mathematically, we always overflow when using the exhaustive tests (because our
scalar order is 13 and our field order is on the order of 2^256), but the
`overflow` variable returned when parsing a b32 as a scalar is always set
to 0, to prevent infinite (or practically infinite) loops searching for
non-overflowing scalars.
