perf: implement GLV endomorphism — verify 68% faster (8.7x vs native)

Implements the secp256k1 GLV (Gallant-Lambert-Vanstone) endomorphism to
halve the number of point doublings during signature verification.

How it works: secp256k1 has an efficiently computable endomorphism
φ(x,y) = (β·x, y) where β is a cube root of unity in the field.
The corresponding scalar λ satisfies λ·P = φ(P). Any 256-bit scalar k
can be decomposed into k = k₁ + k₂·λ (mod n) where k₁, k₂ are ~128 bits.
This means k·P = k₁·P + k₂·(β·P.x, P.y), requiring only ~130 doublings
instead of 256.

For verification (s·G - e·P), both scalars are split into halves,
giving 4 streams processed in a single pass: s₁·G, s₂·λ(G), e₁·P, e₂·λ(P).

Key fixes from earlier debugging:
- MINUS_LAMBDA constant was wrong (byte-level transcription error)
- G1/G2 Babai rounding constants were truncated to ~142 bits instead of
  the full 256-bit values from libsecp256k1
- wNAF overflow fix: extended working array with maxOf(totalBits, scalar.size)
  to handle scalars larger than maxBits (IntArray(8) > IntArray(5) for 129-bit)
- GLV sign handling: XOR the negation flag with each wNAF digit sign instead
  of pre-baking into tables (avoids double-negation on negative digits)
- P-side uses Jacobian tables (avoids 8 expensive field inversions that
  would negate the GLV speedup)

Tests: 4 new GLV-specific tests (scalar split reconstruction, endomorphism
correctness, wNAF+GLV k1*G, mulDoubleG with zero scalar)

Benchmark improvement for verifySchnorr:
  Before (wNAF only):  2,626 ops/s (10.6x vs native)
  After (wNAF + GLV):  3,254 ops/s (8.7x vs native)
