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()?)

DSA_dup_DH - create a DH structure out of DSA structure
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>
These are updates/fixes to DH/DSA/RAND docs based on the fixes to the RSA docs. There were a couple of other places (including RSA) where the docs were not quite synchronised with the API that are now fixed. One or two still remain to be fixed though ...

DH * DSA_dup_DH(const DSA *r);
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 DESCRIPTION
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.
=head1 RETURN VALUE
DSA_dup_DH() returns the new B<DH> structure, and NULL on error. The
Fix L<> content in manpages L<foo|foo> is sub-optimal If the xref is the same as the title, which is what we do, then you only need L<foo>. This fixes all 1457 occurrences in 349 files. Approximately. (And pod used to need both.) Reviewed-by: Richard Levitte <levitte@openssl.org>
