This change drops tinkering with the `COMPILE_OPTIONS` directory
property. Also `try_add_compile_option()` can handle a list of flags
now, if they are required to be checked simultaneously.
An explanatory comments have been added as well.

Pull request description:
This PR:
- resolves two items from #1235, including a bugfix with package version compatibility
- includes other improvements which have become available for CMake 3.13+.
To test the `GENERATOR_IS_MULTI_CONFIG` property on Linux, one can use the "[Ninja Multi-Config](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/generator/Ninja%20Multi-Config.html)" generator:
```sh
cmake -S . -B build -G "Ninja Multi-Config"

ce5ba9e24d gitignore: Add CMakeUserPresets.json (Tim Ruffing)
0a446a312f cmake: Add dev-mode CMake preset (Tim Ruffing)
Pull request description:
To use, invoke `cmake` with argument `--preset dev-mode`.
One disadvantage over `./configure --enable-dev-mode` is that CMake does not provide a way to "hide" presets from users. That is, `cmake --list-presets` will list dev-mode, and it will also appear in `cmake-gui`, even though it's not selectable there due to a bug in cmake-gui.
Solves one item in #1224.

Pull request description:
Replaces #1282.
Its only remaining use is in a test introduced in #1118, and it is easily replaced by the new `secp256k1_fe_add_int` from #1217.

To use, invoke `cmake` with argument `--preset dev-mode`.
Solves one item in #1235.
One disadvantage over `./configure --enable-dev-mode` is that CMake
does not provide a way to "hide" presets from users. That is,
`cmake --list-presets` will list dev-mode, and it will also appear
in `cmake-gui`, even though it's not selectable there due to bug
https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/23341. (So in our
case, that's probably rather a feature than a bug.)
We curently use version 3 presets which require CMake 3.21+.
Unfortunately, CMake versions before 3.19 may ignore the `--preset`
argument silently. So if the preset is not picked up, make sure you
have a recent enough CMake version.
More unfortunately, we can't even spell this warning out in
CMakePresets.json because CMake does not support officially support
comments in JSON, see
- https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/21858
- https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/merge_requests/5853 .
We could use a hack hinted at in
https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/21858#note_908543
but that's risky, because it could simply break for future versions,
and we probably want to use presets not only for dev mode.

77445898a5 Remove `SECP256K1_INLINE` usage from examples (Hennadii Stepanov)
Pull request description:
From [IRC](https://gnusha.org/secp256k1/2023-01-31.log):
> 06:29 \< hebasto\> What are reasons to define the `SECP256K1_INLINE` macro in user's `include/secp256k1.h` header, while it is used internally only?
> 06:32 \< hebasto\> I mean, any other (or a new dedicated) header in `src` looks more appropriate, no?
> 06:35 \< sipa\> I think it may just predate any "utility" internal headers.
> 06:42 \< sipa\> I think it makes sense to move it to util.h
Pros:
- it is a step in direction to better organized headers (in context of #924, #1039)
Cons:
- code duplication for `SECP256K1_GNUC_PREREQ` macro
