The output C code was made to use ERR_func_error_string() to see if a
string table was already loaded or not. Since this function returns
NULL always, this check became useless.
Change it to use ERR_reason_error_string() instead, as there's no
reason to believe we will get rid of reason strings, ever.
To top it off, we rebuild all affected C sources.

If ossl_method_store_add() gets called with a method that already exists
(i.e. the store has one with matching provider, nid and properties), that
method should not be stored. We do this check inside ossl_method_store_add()
because it has all the locking required to do so safely.

Because this function affects the reference count on failure (the call
to impl_free() does this), it may as well handle incrementing it as
well to indicate the extra reference in the method store.

The problem being that the "requires flush" flag was being cleared after the
the flush. The fix is to clear it before. This is a problem because the
cache flushing called RAND_bytes and if the DRBG hadn't been created yet, it
would be queried and added to the cache causing the flush code to repeat.

The alternative is to use a fast and small xorshift
random number generator. The stochastic flushing doesn't require good
random numbers, just enough variety to avoid causing problems.

The core now supplies its own versions of ERR_new(), ERR_set_debug()
and ERR_vset_error(). This should suffice for a provider to have any
OpenSSL compatible functionlity it desires.
The main difference between the ERR functions and the core
counterparts is that the core counterparts take an OSSL_PROVIDER
parameter instead of the library number. That way, providers do not
need to know what number they have been assigned, that information
stays in the core.

With properties being specified in all kinds of places, including hard
coded in providers, it's not always easy to figure out exactly what
string was incorrect when the parser would just say something like
'parse failed' with no more details.
Adding extra data to the error, showing exactly what string is
incorrect, helps a bit. At the very least, this gives anyone
interested something to grep for.

- Add a bit more text about that is expected of the user or
OSSL_METHOD_STOREs.
- Clarify what a method and what a numeric identity are.
- Change all mentions of 'implementation' and 'result' to 'method'.
To clarify further: OpenSSL has used the term 'method' for structures
that mainly contains function pointers. Those are the methods that
are expected to be stored away in OSSL_METHOD_STOREs. In the end,
however, it's the caller's responsibility to define exactly what they
want to store, as long as its 'methods' are associated with a numeric
identity and properties.

Properties are a sequence of comma separated name=value pairs. A name
without a corresponding value is assumed to be a Boolean and have the
true value 'yes'. Values are either strings or numbers. Strings can be
quoted either _"_ or _'_ or unquoted (with restrictions). There are no
escape characters inside strings. Number are either decimal digits or
'0x' followed by hexidecimal digits. Numbers are represented internally
as signed sixty four bit values.
Queries on properties are a sequence comma separated conditional tests.
These take the form of name=value (equality test), name!=value (inequality
test) or name (Boolean test for truth). Queries can be parsed, compared
against a definition or merged pairwise.
