Move the handling of the sign out of the base-specific loops. This
both simplifies the code, and corrects an edge case: the code in the
non-hexadecimal case depended on mbedtls_mpi_mul_int() preserving the
sign bit when multiplying a "negative zero" MPI by an integer, which
used to be the case but stopped with PR #2512.
Fix#4295. Thanks to Guido Vranken for analyzing the cause of the bug.

This check was added earlier to avoid useless calls to `memcpy()`
with length `0` in the _frequent_ case where we're not accumulating.
By now, the whole code path has been moved to a branch which is only
executed if the reader is accumulating, and the only time this check
would be relevant is if we happen to feed an empty fragment to the
reader. In this case, the call to memcpy() could be removed, but
since this case is exceptional and the call to memcpy() is still
correct even for a length 0 copy, we remove the check for simplicity
of the code.

Previously, the semantics of mbedtls_mps_reader_commit() was to invalidate
all buffers previously fetched via mbedtls_mps_reader_get(), forbidding
any further use by the 'consumer'. This was in fact a necessary constraint
for the current implementation, which did some memory moving in
mbedtls_mps_reader_commit().
This commit simplifies the reader's semantics and implementation in
the following way:
- API: A call to mbedtls_mps_reader_commit() does no longer invalidate
the buffers previously obtained via mbedtls_mps_reader_get().
Instead, they can continue to be used until
mbedtls_mps_reader_reclaim() is called.
Calling mbedtls_mps_reader_commit() now only sets a marker
indicating which parts of the data received through
mbedtls_mps_reader_get() need not be backed up once
mbedtls_mps_reader_reclaim() is called. Allowing the user
to call mbedtls_mbedtls_reader_commit() multiple times
before mbedtls_mps_reader_reclaim() is mere convenience:
We'd get exactly the same functionality if instead of
mbedtls_mps_reader_commit(), there was an additional argument
to mbedtls_mps_reader_reclaim() indicating how much data
to retain. However, the present design is more convenient
for the user and doesn't appear to introduce any unnecessary
complexity (anymore), so we stick with it for now.
- Implementation: mbedtls_mps_reader_commit() is now a 1-liner,
setting the 'commit-marker', but doing nothing else.
Instead, the complexity of mbedtls_mp_reader_reclaim()
slightly increases because it has to deal with creating
backups from both the accumulator and the current
fragment. In the previous implementation, which shifted
the accumulator content with every call to
mbedtls_mps_reader_commit(), only the backup from the
fragment was necessary; with the new implementation
which doesn't shift anything in
mbedtls_mps_reader_commit(), we need to do the
accumulator shift in mbedtls_mps_reader_reclaim().
