The RAND_DRBG API did not fit well into the new provider concept as
implemented by EVP_RAND and EVP_RAND_CTX. The main reason is that the
RAND_DRBG API is a mixture of 'front end' and 'back end' API calls
and some of its API calls are rather low-level. This holds in particular
for the callback mechanism (RAND_DRBG_set_callbacks()) and the RAND_DRBG
type changing mechanism (RAND_DRBG_set()).
Adding a compatibility layer to continue supporting the RAND_DRBG API as
a legacy API for a regular deprecation period turned out to come at the
price of complicating the new provider API unnecessarily. Since the
RAND_DRBG API exists only since version 1.1.1, it was decided by the OMC
to drop it entirely.
Other related changes:
Use RNG instead of DRBG in EVP_RAND documentation. The documentation was
using DRBG in places where it should have been RNG or CSRNG.
Move the RAND_DRBG(7) documentation to EVP_RAND(7).

This has as effect that SHA1 and MD5+SHA1 are no longer supported at
security level 1, and that TLS < 1.2 is no longer supported at the
default security level of 1, and that you need to set the security
level to 0 to use TLS < 1.2.

The goal is to transform the standard documents
README, INSTALL, SUPPORT, CONTRIBUTING, ...
from a pure text format into markdown format, but in such a way
that the documentation remains nicely formatted an easy readable
when viewed with an normal text editor.
To achieve this goal, we use a special form of 'minimalistic' markdown
which interferes as little as possible with the reading flow.
* avoid [ATX headings][] and use [setext headings][] instead
(works for `<h1>` and `<h2>` headings only).
* avoid [inline links][] and use [reference links][] instead.
* avoid [fenced code blocks][], use [indented-code-blocks][] instead.
The transformation will take place in several steps. This commit
introduces mostly changes the formatting and does not chang the
content significantly.

[setext headings]: https://github.github.com/gfm/#setext-headings
