Longer private key sizes unnecessarily raise the cycles needed to
compute the shared secret without any increase of the real security.
We use minimum key sizes as defined in RFC7919.
For arbitrary parameters we cannot know whether they are safe
primes (we could test but that would be too inefficient) we have
to keep generating large keys.
However we now set a small dh->length when we are generating safe prime
parameters because we know it is safe to use small keys with them.
That means users need to regenerate the parameters if they
want to take the performance advantage of small private key.

Including e_os.h with a path from a header file doesn't work well on
certain exotic platform. It simply fails to build.
Since we don't seem to be able to stop ourselves, the better move is
to move e_os.h to an include directory that's part of the inclusion
path given to the compiler.

The only reason(s) the DH private key length should be set are:
(1) The user sets it during key generation via EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_params
using OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_DH_PRIV_LEN.
(2) When loading a PKCS3 (DH) key the optional value
'privateValueLength' is set.
Now that the named groups contain a value for 'q' there is no reason to
automatically overwrite the private key length.

Adding the EVP_PKEY_param_check_quick() reminded me that there are also
partial checks for public keys as part of SP800-56A for FFC (DH named safe
prime groups) and ECC. The code was mainly already there and just needed
to be plumbed into the validate methods.

EVP_PKEY_CTX_set_dh_ functions were only available when DH was enabled
('no-dsa' not configured). However, that makes it impossible to use
these functions with an engine or a provider that happens to implement
DH. This change solves that problem by shuffling these functions to
more appropriate places.
By consequence, there are a number of places where we can remove the
check of OPENSSL_NO_DH. This requires some re-arrangements of
internal tables to translate between numeric identities and names.

Many of the new types introduced by OpenSSL 3.0 have an OSSL_ prefix,
e.g., OSSL_CALLBACK, OSSL_PARAM, OSSL_ALGORITHM, OSSL_SERIALIZER.
The OPENSSL_CTX type stands out a little by using a different prefix.
For consistency reasons, this type is renamed to OSSL_LIB_CTX.

DH_set0_pqg() is now responsible for caching the nid, q and length.
DH with or without named safe prime groups now default to using the maximum private key length (BN_num_bits(q) - 1)
when generating a DH private key. The code is now shared between fips and non fips mode for DH key generation.
The OSSL_PKEY_PARAM_DH_PRIV_LEN parameter can be used during keygen to override the maximum private key length to be
in the range (2 * strength ... bits(q) - 1). Where the strength depends on the length of p.
Added q = (p - 1) / 2 safe prime BIGNUMS so that the code is data driven (To simplify adding new names).
The BIGNUMS were code generated.

Fixes#11108.
It only sets q if a valid named group is found.
The function signature was recently changed to pass a non const DH pointer
in order to allow the nid to be cached internally. As an extension of this
the value of q can now also be set as q is always known for named groups.
The length field is also set if q is set.
