deps: bump secp256k1 to 0.33.0

The 0.32.0-beta line was yanked from crates.io when 0.33.0 was
released.

XOnlyPublicKey::serialize was deprecated for to_byte_array.
secp256k1::Keypair::from_seckey_byte_array became
`from_secret_bytes`.

The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit updates the project's cryptographic library dependency from a beta version to a stable release. The old beta version was removed from the package registry, so this change is primarily about keeping the project buildable and current. The code changes are limited to renaming two function calls to match the new library version. There is no direct evidence in the commit of a security vulnerability being fixed.

Recommended action

No immediate security action required. Verify that CI passes with secp256k1 0.33.0 and secp256k1-sys 0.14.0. Review the upstream secp256k1 0.33.0 release notes separately for any security advisories, as this commit does not enumerate them. Consider pinning to stable versions rather than beta releases in the future.
