notary/internal/tlog: implement algorithms for tamper-evident log

This is part of a design sketch for a Go module notary.
Eventually the code will live outside golang.org/x/exp.

This CL implements the core algorithms for a tamper-evident log
as introduced by Crosby & Wallach's USENIX Security 2009 paper
“Efficient Data Structures for Tamper-Evident Logging”
(https://www.usenix.org/legacy/event/sec09/tech/full_papers/crosby.pdf)
and later refined by RFC 6962 for Certificate Transparency.

The proof format in this package matches Certificate Transparency.
