Filenames (whether pathnames, or references to header files) are always

a standard header file include, specify the header file surrounded by
angle brackets, in the usual C way (e.g., <stdio.h>).

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 fixes a strict aliasing issue in ui_dup_method_data.
The parameter type of CRYPTO_EX_dup's from_d parameter
is in fact void **, since it points to a pointer.
This function is rarely used, therefore fix the param type
although that may be considered an API breaking change.

This allows allocation of items at indexes that were created after the
CRYPTO_EX_DATA variable was initialized, using the exact same method
that was used then.

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.

Code was added in commit b3c31a65 that overwrote the last ex_data value
using CRYPTO_dup_ex_data() causing a memory leak, and potentially
confusing the ex_data dup() callback.
In ssl_session_dup(), fix error handling (properly reference and up-ref
shared data) and new-up the ex_data before calling CRYPTO_dup_ex_data();
all other structures that dup ex_data have the destination ex_data new'd
before the dup.
Fix up some of the ex_data documentation.
