Orion 0.17 - X25519 with formally-verified field arithemtic and serde support

orion is a cryptography library written in pure Rust. It aims to provide easy and usable crypto while trying to minimize the use of unsafe code.

Orion now supports X25519 (Diffie-Hellman over Curve25519), which uses formally-verified field arithmetic generated by fiat-crypto. Additionally, a lot of focus was put into hardening the CI/CD of the crate along with added support for serde. This work was championed by /u/vlmutolo.

My sincerest thanks to all the new contributors that contributed other, but equally important improvements to these versions! Special thanks to /u/vlmutolo for his continuing work throughout this project, it is immensely appreciated!
