OpenSSL_version(OPENSSL_DIR) gives you a nicely formatted string for
display, but if all you really want is the directory itself, you were
forced to parsed the string.
This introduces a new function to get diverse configuration data from
the library, OPENSSL_info(). This works the same way as
OpenSSL_version(), but has its own series of types, currently
including:
OPENSSL_INFO_CONFIG_DIR returns OPENSSLDIR
OPENSSL_INFO_ENGINES_DIR returns ENGINESDIR
OPENSSL_INFO_MODULES_DIR returns MODULESDIR
OPENSSL_INFO_DSO_EXTENSION returns DSO_EXTENSION
OPENSSL_INFO_DIR_FILENAME_SEPARATOR returns directory/filename separator
OPENSSL_INFO_LIST_SEPARATOR returns list separator
For scripting purposes, this also adds the command 'openssl info'.

We're strictly use version numbers of the form MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
Letter releases are things of days past.
The most central change is that we now express the version number with
three macros, one for each part of the version number:
OPENSSL_VERSION_MAJOR
OPENSSL_VERSION_MINOR
OPENSSL_VERSION_PATCH
We also provide two additional macros to express pre-release and build
metadata information (also specified in semantic versioning):
OPENSSL_VERSION_PRE_RELEASE
OPENSSL_VERSION_BUILD_METADATA
To get the library's idea of all those values, we introduce the
following functions:
unsigned int OPENSSL_version_major(void);
unsigned int OPENSSL_version_minor(void);
unsigned int OPENSSL_version_patch(void);
const char *OPENSSL_version_pre_release(void);
const char *OPENSSL_version_build_metadata(void);
Additionally, for shared library versioning (which is out of scope in
semantic versioning, but that we still need):
OPENSSL_SHLIB_VERSION
We also provide a macro that contains the release date. This is not
part of the version number, but is extra information that we want to
be able to display:
OPENSSL_RELEASE_DATE
Finally, also provide the following convenience functions:
const char *OPENSSL_version_text(void);
const char *OPENSSL_version_text_full(void);
The following macros and functions are deprecated, and while currently
existing for backward compatibility, they are expected to disappear:
OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER
OPENSSL_VERSION_TEXT
OPENSSL_VERSION
OpenSSL_version_num()
OpenSSL_version()
Also, this function is introduced to replace OpenSSL_version() for all
indexes except for OPENSSL_VERSION:
OPENSSL_info()
For configuration, the option 'newversion-only' is added to disable all
the macros and functions that are mentioned as deprecated above.

The OMC hasn't yet decided what the next release version will be, but
it's at least going to 1.1.2, so we set that value for the moment.

To make sure that our symbols don't clash with other libraries, we
claim the namespaces OSSL and OPENSSL. Because C doesn't provide
namespaces, the only solution is to have them as prefixes on symbols,
thus we allow OSSL_ and OPENSSL_ as prefixes.
These namespace prefixes are optional for the foreseeable future, and
will only be used for new modules as needed on a case by case basis,
until further notice.
For extra safety, there's an added requirement that module names -
apart from the namespace prefix - be at least 2 characters long.
