SAE: Add forgotten commit element validation step for FFC groups

Browse source 
The peer commit element needs to be validated to pass one of the steps
listed in IEEE 802.11, 11.3.5.4:
scalar-op(r, ELEMENT) = 1 modulo p

Similar step was present for ECC groups, but was missing for FFC groups.
This is needed to avoid dictionary attacks.

Thanks to Michael Roßberg and Sascha Grau for reporting this.
