brontide: refer directly to the curve object in btcec's global namespace
This commit modifies the `ecdh` function within the `brontide` package
to refer directly to the global curve params object in the `bcec`
package rather than reference it from the target public key. This
changes fixes a class of panics that have been uncovered recently but
*doesn’t* yet fix the root cause.

brontide

[Build Status] (https://travis-ci.org/lightningnetwork/lnd) [MIT licensed] (https://github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/blob/master/LICENSE) [GoDoc] (http://godoc.org/github.com/lightningnetwork/lnd/brontide)

The brontide package implements a secure crypto messaging protocol based off of the Noise Protocol Framework. The package exposes the raw state machine that handles the handshake and subsequent message encryption/decryption scheme. Additionally, the package exposes a net.Conn and a net.Listener interface implementation which allows the encrypted transport to be seamlessly integrated into a codebase.

The secure messaging scheme implemented within this package is described in detail in BOLT #8 of the Lightning Network specifications.

This package has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing secure encrypted+authenticated communications between network enabled programs.
