ElGamal decryption incorrect #54

It seems that the use of fst and snd are swapped in the ElGamal decryption algorithm in the examples. I would suggest adding a correctness game to AsymScheme.v and prove perfect correctness for the ElGamal scheme to make the correctness guarantee explicit.

I will attempt to make a PR with these changes in due time.

Encryption has shared secret as first component:

ret (fto (g^+y, (otf pk)^+y * (otf m)))

Decryption computes inverse on the second component (not shared secret):
ret (fto ((fst (otf c)) * ((snd (otf c))^-(otf sk))))
