Document DSA and SHA. New function BN_pseudo_rand(). Use BN_prime_checks_size(BN_num_bits(w)) rounds of Miller-Rabin when generating DSA primes (why not use BN_is_prime()?)

=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/dsa.h>
Deprecate the low level Diffie-Hellman functions. Use of the low level DH functions has been informally discouraged for a long time. We now formally deprecate them. Reviewed-by: Richard Levitte <levitte@openssl.org> (Merged from https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/11024)

Deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, can be hidden entirely by defining

L<openssl_user_macros(7)>:
doc/man3: reformat the function prototypes in the synopses I tried hard to keep the lines at 80 characters or less, but in a few cases I had to punt and just indented the subsequent lines by 4 spaces. A few well-placed typedefs for callback functions would really help, but these would be part of the API, so that's probably for later. I also took the liberty of inserting empty lines in overlong blocks to provide some visual space.

The function described on this page is deprecated. There is no direct
replacement, applications should use the EVP_PKEY APIs for Diffie-Hellman
operations.

DSA_dup_DH() duplicates DSA parameters/keys as DH parameters/keys. q
is lost during that conversion, but the resulting DH parameters
contain its length.
