The main addition are the bfe! and xfe! macros. They simplify construction of BFieldElements and XFieldElements, respectively.

Additionally,

BFieldElement::from can now deal with u8, u16, and i32.
XFieldElement::from can now deal with T and [T; EXTENSION_DEGREE] where T is any type that can be converted into a BFieldElement.
