d6ff738 Ensure safety of ctz_debruijn implementation. (Russell O'Connor)

Pull request description:

  Adding `U` to the magic constants ensures that we are not mixing unsigned and signed value during multiplication, and ensures that the multiplication will not be subject to integer promotion.

  The `(uint32_t)`/`(uint64_t)` casts ensure the values are properly truncated no matter the size of an int.

  Prior to this commit, if `secp256k1_ctz32_var_debruijn` were some how managed to be built on a platform with 64-bit ints, (though this function is specifically only intended to be used on 32-bit platforms) it would perform an out-of-bounds array access.
