SF patch 936813: fast modular exponentiation

This checkin is adapted from part 1 (of 3) of Trevor Perrin's patch set.

x_mul()
  - sped a little by optimizing the C
  - sped a lot (~2X) if it's doing a square; note that long_pow() squares
    often
k_mul()
  - more cache-friendly now if it's doing a square
KARATSUBA_CUTOFF
  - boosted; gradeschool mult is quicker now, and it may have been too low
    for many platforms anyway
KARATSUBA_SQUARE_CUTOFF
  - new
  - since x_mul is a lot faster at squaring now, the point at which
    Karatsuba pays for squaring is much higher than for general mult
