Pull request description:
Now that libsecp256k1 has a release (https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2022-December/021271.html), update the subtree to match it.
The changes themselves are not very impactful for Bitcoin Core, but include:
* It's no longer needed to specify whether contexts are for signing or verification or both (all contexts support everything), so make use of that in this PR.
* Verification operations can use the static context now, removing the need for some infrastructure in pubkey.cpp to make sure a context exists.
* Most modules are now enabled by default, so we can drop explicit enabling for them.
* CI improvements (in particular, MSVC and more recent MacOS)
* Introduction of an internal int128 type, which has no effect for GCC/Clang builds, but enables 128-bit multiplication in MSVC, giving a ~20% speedup there (but still slower than GCC/Clang).
* Release process changes (process documentation, changelog, ...).

* Use SECP256K1_CONTEXT_NONE when creating signing context, as
SECP256K1_CONTEXT_SIGN is deprecated and unnecessary.
* Use secp256k1_static_context where applicable.
Base32/base64 are mechanisms for encoding binary data. That they'd
decode to a string is just bizarre. The fact that they'd do that
based on the type of input arguments even more so.
Surprisingly easy to do. Almost all of the diff resolution was mechanically
* replacing boost::variant with std::variant
* replacing Optional with std::optional
* then replacing `nullopt` with `std::nullopt`
* updating the RPC functions for the new RPCArg::Default type
* update the tests/ directory to make new (since 22) tests use arrays for
createrawtransaction outputs
* other ad-hoc changes to function parameters etc (not too many of these)
I had to "really" change the code in PrecomputePSBTData, which was introduced
in 22.0 and affected by PSET, but this function was like 8 lines long so it
was easy.
Reviewing the diff may be a bit difficult because of the mix of mechanical
changes and ad-hoc things. Probably the most straightforward thing to do
is to redo the merge, `sed -i` to fix the boost::variant and Optional stuff,
then diff the remaining conflicts against this commit.
TODO: grep for `blindpsbt` and you will see that this RPC is still referenced
in documentation and help text even though it was deleted. Need to fix this
in 0.21 in a separate PR.
Includes a memory leak in the checkqueue unit test (but not in
the actual code). WE really need to switch our checkqueue to use
std::unique_pointer rather than bare pointers. But this would be
invasive enough that I want to do it in a followup PR.
Also pretty-much disable the validation_flush_cache unit test.
This is a stupid and irritating test which tries to unit-test
exact memory usage of std containers. It already has at least
one "remove wrong assumptions" update upstream and after many
tries I was unable to change all the magic numbers in a way
that'd consistently pass CI for Elements.
Also adds a couple ubsan suppressions about perfectly-legitimate
conversions of integer types.
