EC private/secret key needs a level of indirection / opaque type like public keys

This will allow for a stable API and allow for internal representation changes to the secret key.

Today secret keys are assumed to be a 32 byte big endian integer value.

Created #911 to provide this in an API breaking BUT NOT ABI breaking way. (You can in fact still cast a 32 byte array to secret key)
