Two new search strategies to find special-form primes p #4

Commits on Feb 25, 2023

  1. Two new search strategies to find special-form primes p. 

    1. Crandall primes p = 2^x-c with c small.
2. Montgomery-friendly primes p = c*2^x+1 with c small.

Additional tweaks:

- Added new option: --anyeqn to search curve equations with b in [1, 999]. Without this option, the script only uses b = 5.
- Print the primes in hex format instead of binary.
- Wait on the pool termination.
