Fix information leak in ecp_gen_keypair_base

The function mbedtls_ecp_gen_keypair_base did not wipe the stack buffer used to
hold the private exponent before returning. This commit fixes this by not using
a stack buffer in the first place but instead calling mpi_fill_random directly
to acquire the necessary random MPI.
