kernel: Introduce initial kernel C header API
As a first step, implement the equivalent of what was implemented in the now deprecated libbitcoinconsensus header. Also add a test binary to exercise the header and library. Unlike the deprecated libbitcoinconsensus the kernel library can now use the hardware-accelerated sha256 implementations thanks for its statically-initialzed context. The functions kept around for backwards-compatibility in the libbitcoinconsensus header are not ported over. As a new header, it should not be burdened by previous implementations. Also add a new error code for handling invalid flag combinations, which would otherwise cause a crash. The macros used in the new C header were adapted from the libsecp256k1 header. To make use of the C header from C++ code, a C++ header is also introduced for wrapping the C header. This makes it safer and easier to use from C++ code.
