In many locations, the files have been converted to markdown
syntactically, but don't utilize the power of markdown yet.
Here, instead of just repeating the file name, the markdown link
now shows the title of the document.
Additionally, the notes are now reference in the same order in both
the README and the INSTALL file.

Some of the notes and readme files have been converted to markdown
format recently and renamed during this process. While adding the
.md extension was a natural step, switching to mixed cases was not
a change to the better, it gives them a ragged appearance:
NOTES.ANDROID => NOTES-Android.md
NOTES.DJGPP => NOTES-DJGPP.md
NOTES.PERL => NOTES-Perl.md
NOTES.UNIX => NOTES-Unix.md
NOTES.VMS => NOTES-VMS.md
NOTES.VALGRIND => NOTES-Valgrind.md
NOTES.WIN => NOTES-Windows.txt
README.ENGINE => README-Engine.md
README.FIPS => README-FIPS.md
Moreover, the NOTES-Windows.txt file is the only file which has been
converted to markdown but has received a .txt file extension.
This doesn't make sense, because the OpenSSL users on Windows will
need to read the other markdown documents as well. Since they are
developers, we can trust them to be able to associate their favorite
editor with the .md extension.
In fact, having a comment at the beginning of the file saying that it
is in markdown format but we didn't dare to add the correct extension
in order not to overwhelm our Windows users can be interpreted either
as unintentionally funny or disrespectful ;-)
This commit suggests the following more consistent renaming:
NOTES.ANDROID => NOTES-ANDROID.md
NOTES.DJGPP => NOTES-DJGPP.md
NOTES.PERL => NOTES-PERL.md
NOTES.UNIX => NOTES-UNIX.md
NOTES.VMS => NOTES-VMS.md
NOTES.VALGRIND => NOTES-VALGRIND.md
NOTES.WIN => NOTES-WINDOWS.md
README.ENGINE => README-ENGINES.md
README.FIPS => README-FIPS.md
(note the plural in README-ENGINES, anticipating a README-PROVIDERS)

We have a notational convention in INSTALL.md, which says this among
others:
> Any line starting with a dollar sign is a command line.
>
> $ command
>
> The dollar sign indicates the shell prompt and is not to be entered as
> part of the command.
That notation exists to make it clear what is a command line and
what's output from that command line.

For FIPS validation purposes - Automated Cryptographic Validation Protocol (ACVP) tests need to be
performed. (See https://github.com/usnistgov/ACVP). These tests are very similiar to the old CAVS tests.
This PR uses a hardwired subset of these test vectors to perform similiar operations,
to show the usage and prove that the API's are able to perform the required operations.
It may also help with communication with the lab (i.e- The lab could add a test here to show
a unworking use case - which we can then address).
The EVP layer performs these tests instead of calling lower level API's
as was done in the old FOM.
Some of these tests require access to internals that are not normally allowed/required.
The config option 'acvp_tests' (enabled by default) has been added so that this
access may be removed.
The mechanism has been implemented as additional OSSL_PARAM values that can be set and get.
A callback mechanism did not seem to add any additional benefit.
These params will not be added to the gettables lists.
