    Always clamp curve25519 keys prior to use.
    
    This fixes an issue where a private key contained bits that should
    have been cleared by the clamping process, but were passed through
    to the scalar multiplication routine and resulted in an invalid
    public key.
    
    Issue diagnosed (and an initial fix proposed) by shamaz.mazum in
    PR 252894.
    
    This fix suggested by Jason Donenfeld.
