The KEYMGMT libcrypto <-> provider interface currently makes a few
assumptions:
1. provider side domain parameters and key data isn't mutable. In
other words, as soon as a key has been created in any (loaded,
imported data, ...), it's set in stone.
2. provider side domain parameters can be strictly separated from the
key data.
This does work for the most part, but there are places where that's a
bit too rigid for the functionality that the EVP_PKEY API delivers.
Key data needs to be mutable to allow the flexibility that functions
like EVP_PKEY_copy_parameters promise, as well as to provide the
combinations of data that an EVP_PKEY is generally assumed to be able
to hold:
- domain parameters only
- public key only
- public key + private key
- domain parameters + public key
- domain parameters + public key + private key
To remedy all this, we:
1. let go of the distinction between domain parameters and key
material proper in the libcrypto <-> provider interface.
As a consequence, functions that still need it gain a selection
argument, which is a set of bits that indicate what parts of the
key object are to be considered in a specific call. This allows
a reduction of very similar functions into one.
2. Rework the libcrypto <-> provider interface so provider side key
objects are created and destructed with a separate function, and
get their data filled and extracted in through import and export.
(future work will see other key object constructors and other
functions to fill them with data)

Since we're falling back to legacy, this isn't an error any more.
Among others the failed EVP_KEYMGMT_fetch() error shadows other errors
produced by the legacy code, which disrupts our test/evp_test runs.
We use the error stack mark to restore the error stack just right,
i.e. ERR_set_mark(), ERR_clear_last_mark() and ERR_pop_to_mark()

The code to ensure that an EVP_PKEY is exported to providers is
repeated all over the place, enough that copying it again has the
usual future hazards with code copying.
Instead, we refactor that code into one function,
evp_pkey_make_provided(), and make sure to use that everywhere.
It relies on the creation of EVP_PKEY_CTX to figure out facts about
the input key, should it need to.

These functions would only handle provided methods, but there are
cases where the caller just passes along a received method without
knowing the underlying method tech, so might pass along a legacy
method. We therefore need to have them handle this case as well so
they don't cause any unnecessary surprises.
