As much as CMake support can be an interesting topic, this is the wrong repo, we don't have multiset and schnorr in master :)

Ouch... Of course. I'll come back later with changes =)

I know it's not great but we're actually reasonably happy with automake (and it integrates with Bitcoin Core), so I can strictly speaking only speak for myself but I don't think there's much interest in maintaining CMake support.

So before you spend too much on this, be warned that the chances of this getting merged are not too high.

Pull request description:

  This PR adds a [CMake](https://cmake.org/)-based build system.

  Added build instructions and examples to the [`README.md`](https://github.com/hebasto/secp256k1/blob/220628-cmake/README.md#building-with-cmake-experimental) file.

  Ways to integrate with downstream CMake-based projects:
  - if `secp256k1` is a subtree (including Bitcoin Core project) -- `add_subdirectory(secp256k1)`
  - if `secp256k1` has been installed -- `find_package(secp256k1 0.2.1 CONFIG)`, see https://github.com/hebasto/secp256k1-CMake-example

  Added a few toolchain files for easy cross compiling.

  **Implementation notes**

  Minimum required CMake version is 3.1. This was required to provide [`C_STANDARD`](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/prop_tgt/C_STANDARD.html) property.

  In turn, this choice of CMake version implies it is not possible to build with default CMake on Debian 8, which has CMake v3.0.2 only.
