Replace the internal usage of Cstruct.t by string (mirage#146)

Originally, we used Cstruct.t (bigarray) for interfacing. Instead, we use string now.
The benefit is that allocating a string is cheap, and in line with OCaml's GC.

After some years of stalling, we included benchmarks in bench/speed.ml fot the EC
operations in mirage#192  (sign, verify, generate for EC/EdDSA; and ECDH). The result for
thi change is a factor between 2 and 2.5.

The external API (mirage_crypto_ec.mli) does not change at all. There are various
other cleanups in the code, such as providing a layer to isolate the C calls (which
receive a bytes buffer for the result value, and thus mutate this buffer) to be
immutable.
