generator: massively speed up serialization

`secp256k1_pedersen_commit_serialize` would call `_load` (which does a
sqrt to fully decompress the key, then a conditional negation based on
the flag), then check the Jacobian symbol of the resulting y-coordinate,
then re-serialize based on this.

Instead, don't do any of this stuff. Copy the flag directly out of the
internal representation and copy the x-coordinate directly out of the
internal representation.

Checked that none of the other _serialize methods in the modules do
this.

Fixes #293
