ECDSA: remove nonce padding (delegated to EC_POINT_mul)
* EC_POINT_mul is now responsible for constant time point multiplication (for single fixed or variable point multiplication, when the scalar is in the range [0,group_order), so we need to strip the nonce padding from ECDSA. * Entry added to CHANGES * Updated EC_POINT_mul documentation - Integrate existing EC_POINT_mul and EC_POINTs_mul entries in the manpage to reflect the shift in constant-time expectations when performing a single fixed or variable point multiplication; - Add documentation to ec_method_st to reflect the updated "contract" between callers and implementations of ec_method_st.mul.
