crypto/internal/edwards25519: replace scalar field with fiat-crypto

This was the last piece of ref10 code, including the infamous "Christmas
tree" in scMulAdd, that approximately all Ed25519 implementations
inherited. Replace the whole scalar field implementation with a
fiat-crypto generated one, like those in crypto/internal/nistec/fiat.

The only complexity is the wide reduction (both for the 64-byte one and
for the clamped input). For that we do a limbed reduction suggested by
Frank Denis.

Some minor housekeeping and test changes from filippo.io/edwards25519
are included, as part of syncing with downstream.
