It's already obnoxiously long, but this removes *_point_* from the previous mul_by_generator_and_mul_add_point_vartime.

The RHS of the addition (bP) is a point-scalar multiplication, so just "point" alone doesn't add much additional clarity, and also the operation is already defined on e.g. ProjectivePoint making it somewhat redundant.

It's already obnoxiously long, but this removes `*_point_*` from the
previous `mul_by_generator_and_mul_add_point_vartime`.

The RHS of the addition (`bP`) is a point-scalar multiplication, so just
"point" alone doesn't add much additional clarity, and also the
operation is already defined on e.g. `ProjectivePoint` making it
somewhat redundant.
