    We can not add secp256k1_ecdsa_sign_recoverable to valgrind_ctime_tests (added in PR #708) because it is mostly a copy of the old ecdsa_sign function which was not constant time in edge cases. Instead of fixing sign_recoverable and again having duplicate code we should add an internal function with the code shared between the two functions (similar to https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/commit/ab4fd520cc9f995fb1d2ffe825a2747671b9848d).

    Let’s get #701 in first because it also touches ecdsa_sign.
