Implement and test mbedtls_ecp_write_key
mbedtls_ecp_write_key is a mirror function to mbedtls_ecp_read_key, which
writes a private key back into a byte buffer in the correct format.
This is a helpful convenience function, since the byte order is defined
differently between Montgomery and Weierstrass curves. Since this difference
is accounted for in mbedtls_ecp_read_key, it made sense to add
mbedtls_ecp_write_key for the purpose of abstracting this away such that
psa_export_key doesn't need to take byte order into account.
