It allows for the challenge phase to accept closures that take some more context, e.g. moving non-Clone values in the challenge closure. This works in stable since Rust 1.35; cfr. rust-lang/rust#28796. This closes issue dalek-cryptography#244.
This adds a general lifetime for the second-phase constraints on RandomizeableConstraintSystem, which should cover the lifetime of each closure given to specify_randomized_constraints(). The latter can receive shorter lifetimes.

Continuation of a discussion at #276: the second phase challenges can only use
FnOnce + 'staticsince #276.This effectively breaks the API (and apparently, rightfully, annoys @oleganza)! We have to pass a generic lifetime to the
RandomizableConstraintSystemtrait in order to constrain the lifetime to the container inProverandVerifier. I don't think there's another way, except maybe with GATs (which would bring different API breaks anyhow).&mut selfmight get people into trouble with late-bound lifetimes. I've had that while experimenting on it, but haven't come to fix it yet. I think it should be possible to add it later though, without breaking API...Depends on #244/#276 (I'll rebase on develop when #276 is merged, too much conflicts to handle otherwise)
