pk: Use 'mpz_init_set' instead of 'memcpy'.

civodul requested to merge civodul/gnutls:mpz-init-set into master

This changes code to use mpz_init_set instead of memcpy where appropriate, as suggested by @dueno in https://lists.gnutls.org/pipermail/gnutls-help/2020-December/004677.html.

Note that it's primarily a stylistic improvement; it does not solve the issues that were discussed in the thread above.
