This commit effectively moves the definition of these constants
out of the chainparamsbase to their own file.
Using the ChainType enums provides better type safety compared to
passing around strings.
The commit is part of an ongoing effort to decouple the libbitcoinkernel
library from the ArgsManager and other functionality that should not be
part of the kernel library.
Preparation to deprecate ParseNonRFCJSONValue() but keep test coverage
on the underlying UniValue::read() unaffected. The test coverage on
AmountFromValue is no longer included, since that is already tested
in the rpc_parse_monetary_values test case.
Fuzzing coverage on ParseNonRFCJSONValue() was duplicated between string.cpp
and parse_univalue.cpp, only the one in parse_univalue.cpp is kept.

Pull request description:
Now that libsecp256k1 has a release (https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/bitcoin-dev/2022-December/021271.html), update the subtree to match it.
The changes themselves are not very impactful for Bitcoin Core, but include:
* It's no longer needed to specify whether contexts are for signing or verification or both (all contexts support everything), so make use of that in this PR.
* Verification operations can use the static context now, removing the need for some infrastructure in pubkey.cpp to make sure a context exists.
* Most modules are now enabled by default, so we can drop explicit enabling for them.
* CI improvements (in particular, MSVC and more recent MacOS)
* Introduction of an internal int128 type, which has no effect for GCC/Clang builds, but enables 128-bit multiplication in MSVC, giving a ~20% speedup there (but still slower than GCC/Clang).
* Release process changes (process documentation, changelog, ...).

* Use SECP256K1_CONTEXT_NONE when creating signing context, as
SECP256K1_CONTEXT_SIGN is deprecated and unnecessary.
* Use secp256k1_static_context where applicable.
