silentpayments: recipient label support

Add function for creating a label tweak. This requires a tagged hash
function for labels. This function is used by the receiver for creating
labels to be used for a) creating labeled addresses and b) to populate
a labels cache when scanning.

Add function for creating a labeled spend pubkey. This involves taking
a label tweak, turning it into a public key and adding it to the spend
public key. This function is used by the receiver to create a labeled
silent payment address.

Add tests for the label API.
