Closes #181. This is a breaking change.
We could probably reexport zeroize's Zeroizing as Memzero, but I don't see any benefits of that. Also I'm in favor of Single Responsibility Principle and if a crate wants to (only) use zeroize functionality, it doesn't have to depend on allocator stuff.

Sure, why not. Are you taking care of the the fallout of this too?

I'll prepare a PR to parity-ethereum and parity-crypto.
