Prepare initial release

There are plenty of unreleased variants of libsecp256k1 version 0.1.0
(libsecp256k1.so.0.0.0) in the wild. We choose a new version number to allow a
clear distinction.

There are variants of 0.1.0 that are incompatible with the initial release,
hence we increase the minor version to arrive at version number 0.2.0. For the
same reason, we increase the LIB_VERSION_CURRENT and keep AGE at 0.
