Adds inherent constants to `AffinePoint` and `ProjectivePoint` representing the identity and generator points. This should make it possible to write `const fn`s that produce things like precomputed basepoint tables (see #508). Deprecates the previous inherent methods on `ProjectivePoint` for returning these constants.
