This adds out of place syntactic sugar for finite fields (FF), extension fields and elliptic curves (EC):
+ for addition
~+ for variable time addition (EC only)
- and ~-
* for multiplication (FF) and scalar multiplication (EC)
~* for variable time scalar multiplication (EC)
Due to performance issues (useless large copies and extra stack alloc instead of in-place construction) https://github.com/mratsim/constantine/issues/145, they should be avoided for internal protocols.
However they are convenient for rapid prototyping, debugging and testing as they skip variable and type declaration.
