This makes WINDOW_G a configurable value in the range of [2..24].
The upper limit of 24 is a defensive choice. The code is probably
correct for values up to 27 but those larger values yield in huge
tables (>= 256MiB), which are i) unlikely to be really beneficial
in practice and ii) increasingly difficult to test.
a34bcaa Actually pass CFLAGS_FOR_BUILD and LDFLAGS_FOR_BUILD to linker (Tim Ruffing)
2d5f4ce configure: Use CFLAGS_FOR_BUILD when checking native compiler (Tim Ruffing)
Pull request description:
This fixes a bug where configure would fail or disable static
ecmult tables because it wrongly checks the native compiler using
the target CFLAGS (instead of the native CFLAGS_FOR_BUILD).
Moreover, this commit adds tests to figure out whether the native
compiler supports the warning flags passed during the build, and it
contains a few minor improvements to the code that checks the native
compiler.

3965027 Summarize build options in configure script (Evan Klitzke)
Pull request description:
This is a trivial build system change to summarize the build options after running configure.
Example output:
```
$ ./configure
....
<many lines omitted>
...
config.status: src/libsecp256k1-config.h is unchanged
config.status: executing depfiles commands
config.status: executing libtool commands
Build Options:
with endomorphism = no
with ecmult precomp = yes
with jni = no
module ecdh = no
module recovery = no
asm = x86_64
bignum = gmp
field = 64bit
scalar = 64bit
CC = gcc
CFLAGS = -g -O2 -W -std=c89 -pedantic -Wall -Wextra -Wcast-align -Wnested-externs -Wshadow -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-unused-function -Wno-long-long -Wno-overlength-strings -fvisibility=hidden -O3
CPPFLAGS =
LDFLAGS =
```
I tried to just include the configure options that looked interesting; let me know if there are any I didn't include that I should have.

270f6c8 Portability fix for the configure scripts generated (Pierre Pronchery)
Pull request description:
Found thanks to the developer checks from the pkgsrc software
distribution (for NetBSD, SmartOS, Minix, MacOS X, Linux, and more).

This fixes a bug where configure would fail or disable static
ecmult tables because it wrongly checks the native compiler using
the target CFLAGS (instead of the native CFLAGS_FOR_BUILD), and
similar for CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS.

57752d2 [build] Set --enable-jni to no by default instead of auto. (Karl-Johan Alm)
Pull request description:
Having `--enable-jni` be `auto` doesn't make a lot of sense, and results in things like https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/11056.
Tree-SHA512: 27d6ea041f5d6e249857869ab87b8f7b1f6d18ec5ec82d2c46e692cd690b9f5c5857886725901a29d3539d427d8b6154d0c7909cfa2ce30bb3d4460c05708386
We observe that when changing the b-value in the elliptic curve formula
`y^2 = x^3 + ax + b`, the group law is unchanged. Therefore our functions
for secp256k1 will be correct if and only if they are correct when applied
to the curve defined by `y^2 = x^3 + 4` defined over the same field. This
curve has a point P of order 199.
This commit adds a test which computes the subgroup generated by P and
exhaustively checks that addition of every pair of points gives the correct
result.
Unfortunately we cannot test const-time scalar multiplication by the same
mechanism. The reason is that these ecmult functions both compute a wNAF
representation of the scalar, and this representation is tied to the order
of the group.
Testing with the incomplete version of gej_add_ge (found in 5de4c5dff^)
shows that this detects the incompleteness when adding P - 106P, which
is exactly what we expected since 106 is a cube root of 1 mod 199.
Squashed and rebased. Thanks to @theuni and @faizkhan00 for doing
the majority of work here! Also thanks to @btchip for help with debugging
and review.
The use of static makes this somewhat redundant currently, though if
we later have multiple compilation units it will be needed.
This also sets the dllexport needed for shared libraries on win32.
This update is to make libsecp256k1 build on OpenBSD (more specifically OpenBSD 5.7 with Autotools 2.69).
Without the "AM_PROG_CC_C_O" line in configure.ac, ./autogen.sh crashes with "Makefile.am: C objects in subdir but `AM_PROG_CC_C_O' not in `configure.ac'\nautoreconf-2.69: automake failed with exit status: 1".
This vastly shrinks the size of the context required for signing on devices with
memory-mapped Flash.
Tables are generated by the new gen_context tool into a header.
