This fixes problems in POD list formatting: extra or missing =back
sequences.

Newer pod2man considers =item [1-9] part of a numbered list, while =item
0 starts an unnumbered list. Add a zero effect formatting mark to override
this.

The primary changes made are:
- Updates to the "NAME" section of many pages to correctly reflect the
functions defined on those pages. This section is automatically parsed
by the util/extract-names.pl script, so if it is not correct then
running "man" will not correctly locate the right manual pages.
- Updates to take account of where functions are now deprecated
- Full documentation of the ec sub-library
- A number of other typo corrections and other minor tweaks
podlators 2.5.0 has switched to dying on POD syntax errors. This means
that a bunch of long-standing erroneous POD in the openssl documentation
now leads to fatal errors from pod2man, halting installation.
Unfortunately POD constraints mean that you have to sort numeric lists
in ascending order if they start with 1: you cannot do 1, 0, 2 even if
you want 1 to appear first. I've reshuffled such (alas, I wish there
were a better way but I don't know of one).
directly by SSL/TLS SHA2 certificates are becoming more common and
applications that only call SSL_library_init() and not
OpenSSL_add_all_alrgorithms() will fail when verifying certificates.
Update docs.
initial connection to unpatched servers. There are no additional security
concerns in doing this as clients don't see renegotiation during an
attack anyway.
relates to SSL_CTX flags and the use of "external" session caching. The
existing flag, "SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP" remains but is
supplemented with a complimentary flag, "SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE".
The bitwise OR of the two flags is also defined as
"SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL" and is the flag that should be used by most
applications wanting to implement session caching *entirely* by its own
provided callbacks. As the documented behaviour contradicted actual
behaviour up until recently, and since that point behaviour has itself been
inconsistent anyway, this change should not introduce any compatibility
problems. I've adjusted the relevant documentation to elaborate about how
this works.
Kudos to "Nadav Har'El" <nyh@math.technion.ac.il> for diagnosing these
anomalies and testing this patch for correctness.

New macros SSL[_CTX]_set_msg_callback_arg().
Message callback imlementation for SSL 3.0/TLS 1.0 (no SSL 2.0 yet).
New '-msg' option for 'openssl s_client' and 'openssl s_server'
that enable a message callback that displays all protocol messages.
In ssl3_get_client_hello (ssl/s3_srvr.c), generate a fatal alert if
client_version is smaller than the protocol version in use.
Also change ssl23_get_client_hello (ssl/s23_srvr.c) to select TLS 1.0
if the client demanded SSL 3.0 but only TLS 1.0 is enabled; then the
client will at least see that alert.
Fix SSL[_CTX]_ctrl prototype (void * instead of char * for generic
pointer).
Add/update some OpenSSL copyright notices.

The patch included in the original post may improve the internal session
list handling (and is therefore worth a seperate investigation).
No change to the list handling will however solve the problems of incorrect
SSL_SESSION_free() calls. The session list is only one possible point of
failure, dangling pointers would also occur for SSL object currently
using the session. The correct solution is to only use SSL_SESSION_free()
when applicable!
