Regarding the optimization method for g1_mul_sim_lot()

[TheYangCode]

Hello, sorry to bother you. I implemented my research scheme using the relic library and found that g1_mul_sim_lot() improved efficiency by nearly half. However, I did not see any explanation regarding the optimization method in the code. It seems to have used the GLV decomposition method (I used ChatGPT). However, I am not sure, so I would like to ask what specific optimization method was used. Could you provide the full name and references? I want to explain the reasons for the improvement in efficiency in my research scheme.

It implements Pippenger's algorithm!
