The RSA decryption as implemented before required very careful handling
of both the exit code returned by OpenSSL and the potentially returned
ciphertext. Looking at the recent security vulnerabilities
(CVE-2020-25659 and CVE-2020-25657) it is unlikely that most users of
OpenSSL do it correctly.
Given that correct code requires side channel secure programming in
application code, we can classify the existing RSA decryption methods
as CWE-676, which in turn likely causes CWE-208 and CWE-385 in
application code.
To prevent that, we can use a technique called "implicit rejection".
For that we generate a random message to be returned in case the
padding check fails. We generate the message based on static secret
data (the private exponent) and the provided ciphertext (so that the
attacker cannot determine that the returned value is randomly generated
instead of result of decryption and de-padding). We return it in case
any part of padding check fails.
The upshot of this approach is that then not only is the length of the
returned message useless as the Bleichenbacher oracle, so are the
actual bytes of the returned message. So application code doesn't have
to perform any operations on the returned message in side-channel free
way to remain secure against Bleichenbacher attacks.
Note: this patch implements a specific algorithm, shared with Mozilla
NSS, so that the attacker cannot use one library as an oracle against the
other in heterogeneous environments.

The example code in EVP_PKEY_decrypt(3) and EVP_PKEY_encrypt(3) and uses
a nonexistent padding mode `RSA_OAEP_PADDING`, which should be
`RSA_PKCS1_OAEP_PADDING` instead.

While stereotyped repetitions are frowned upon in literature, they
serve a useful purpose in manual pages, because it is easier for
the user to find certain information if it is always presented in
the same way. For that reason, this commit harmonizes the varying
formulations in the HISTORY section about which functions, flags,
etc. were added in which OpenSSL version.
It also attempts to make the pod files more grep friendly by
avoiding to insert line breaks between the symbol names and the
corresponding version number in which they were introduced
(wherever possible). Some punctuation and typographical errors
were fixed on the way.

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.
