PR#3071
The primary changes made are:
- Updates to the "NAME" section of many pages to correctly reflect the
functions defined on those pages. This section is automatically parsed
by the util/extract-names.pl script, so if it is not correct then
running "man" will not correctly locate the right manual pages.
- Updates to take account of where functions are now deprecated
- Full documentation of the ec sub-library
- A number of other typo corrections and other minor tweaks
Add CMS_RecipientInfo_encrypt: this function encrypts an existing content
encryption key to match the key in the RecipientInfo structure: this is
useful if a new recpient is added to and existing enveloped data structure.
Add documentation.
podlators 2.5.0 has switched to dying on POD syntax errors. This means
that a bunch of long-standing erroneous POD in the openssl documentation
now leads to fatal errors from pod2man, halting installation.
Unfortunately POD constraints mean that you have to sort numeric lists
in ascending order if they start with 1: you cannot do 1, 0, 2 even if
you want 1 to appear first. I've reshuffled such (alas, I wish there
were a better way but I don't know of one).

Various GOST ciphersuite and ENGINE fixes. Including...
Allow EVP_PKEY_set_derive_peerkey() in encryption operations.
New flag when certificate verify should be omitted in client key exchange.
deprecate the original (numeric-only) scheme, and replace with the
CRYPTO_THREADID object. This hides the platform-specifics and should reduce
the possibility for programming errors (where failing to explicitly check
both thread ID forms could create subtle, platform-specific bugs).
Thanks to Bodo, for invaluable review and feedback.
