Bitcoin Core's `configure` script uses `AC_CHECK_PROG` to find brew in the `PATH` [1]. If found, this macro will set `BREW=brew`. When building with dependencies however the `BREW` variable is set to `no` on macOS via `depends/<host_prefix>/share/config.site` [2] and this overrides `AC_CHECK_PROG` results [3]. Ideally, secp256k1's `configure` script should follow the same logic but this is not what happens because secp256k1's `configure` uses `AC_PATH_PROG` instead which respects preset variable values (in this case for variable `BREW`) only if they are a valid path (i.e., they match `[\\/*] | ?:[\\/]*` [4]), and `no` is not a path.
This commit changes `AC_PATH_PROG` to `AC_CHECK_PROG` to be consistent with Core's `AC_CHECK_PROG`. Both of these macros are supposed to find executables in the `PATH` but the difference is that former is supposed to return the full path whereas the latter is supposed to find only the program. As a result, the latter will accept even non-paths `no` as an override. Not knowing the full path is not an issue for the `configure` script because it will only execute `BREW` immediately afterwards, which works fine without the full path. (In particular, `PATH` cannot have changed in between [5].)

8f879c2887 Fix array size in bench_ecmult (Jonas Nick)
2fe1b50df1 Add ecmult_gen, ecmult_const and ecmult to benchmark (Jonas Nick)
593e6bad9c Clean up ecmult_bench to make space for more benchmarks (Jonas Nick)
Pull request description:
I was trying to determine the impact of ecmult_gen in schnorrsig signing and noticed that there is no way to bench this right now. The new benchmarks look like this:
```
$ ./bench_ecmult
ecmult_gen: min 20.9us / avg 21.2us / max 21.7us
ecmult_const: min 63.9us / avg 64.3us / max 64.8us
ecmult 1: min 49.4us / avg 49.7us / max 50.3us
ecmult 1g: min 39.8us / avg 40.0us / max 40.3us
ecmult 2g: min 27.2us / avg 27.3us / max 27.8us
ecmult_multi 1g: min 39.8us / avg 40.0us / max 40.2us
ecmult_multi 2g: min 27.2us / avg 27.4us / max 27.7us
ecmult_multi 3g: min 22.8us / avg 22.9us / max 23.1us
ecmult_multi 4g: min 20.6us / avg 20.8us / max 21.1us
ecmult_multi 5g: min 19.3us / avg 19.5us / max 19.7us
```
(Turns out ecmult_gen is 37% of the 55.8us that schnorrsig sign takes)

This removes the ununsed `obj` directory. It also suggests in the README
to create the "coverage" files in a separate directory and adds the
coverage files to .gitignore.

3c90bdda95 change local lib headers to be relative for those pointing at "include/" dir (William Bright)
Pull request description:
Referencing #924 , this PR splits the two issues brought on to a smaller to digest change. What this does is removes the prefix "include/" when referencing the local library header files.
e.g:
from:
```cpp
#include "include/secp256k1.h"
```
to:
```cpp
#include "secp256k1.h"
```
Rationale besides styling and consistency across other files in the repo, it makes it easier for outside builds to properly locate the headers.

This passes $(DEFS) (which should literally be "-DHAVE_CONFIG_H") to the
compiler when building gen_context.
This has currently no effect because gen_context.c does not check for
this macro but it's conceivable that it may do so in the future.

This makes a difference with mingw builds on Wine, where the subsequent
fread() may abort early in the default text mode.
The Microsoft C docs say:
"In text mode, CTRL+Z is interpreted as an EOF character on input."
The same file says that the illegal callback will only triger for violations
explicitly mentioned, which is not true without this commit because we often
don't mention that an argument is not allowed to be NULL.

This updates the divsteps-based modular inverse code to use the modified version which starts with delta=1/2. For variable time, the delta=1 variant is still used as it appears to be faster.
See https://github.com/sipa/safegcd-bounds/tree/master/coq and https://medium.com/blockstream/a-formal-proof-of-safegcd-bounds-695e1735a348 for a proof of correctness of this variant.
