FIPS 186-4 has 5 different algorithms for key generation,
and all of them rely on testing GCD(a,n) == 1 many times.
Cachegrind was showing that during a RSA keygen operation,
the function BN_gcd() was taking a considerable percentage
of the total cycles.
The default provider uses multiprime keygen, which seemed to
be much faster. This is because it uses BN_mod_inverse()
instead.
For a 4096 bit key, the entropy of a key that was taking a
long time to generate was recorded and fed back into subsequent
runs. Roughly 40% of the cycle time was BN_gcd() with most of the
remainder in the prime testing. Changing to use the inverse
resulted in the cycle count being 96% in the prime testing.

Since OPENSSL_malloc() and friends report ERR_R_MALLOC_FAILURE, and
at least handle the file name and line number they are called from,
there's no need to report ERR_R_MALLOC_FAILURE where they are called
directly, or when SSLfatal() and RLAYERfatal() is used, the reason
`ERR_R_MALLOC_FAILURE` is changed to `ERR_R_CRYPTO_LIB`.
There were a number of places where `ERR_R_MALLOC_FAILURE` was reported
even though it was a function from a different sub-system that was
called. Those places are changed to report ERR_R_{lib}_LIB, where
{lib} is the name of that sub-system.
Some of them are tricky to get right, as we have a lot of functions
that belong in the ASN1 sub-system, and all the `sk_` calls or from
the CRYPTO sub-system.
Some extra adaptation was necessary where there were custom OPENSSL_malloc()
wrappers, and some bugs are fixed alongside these changes.

BN_one() uses the expand function which calls malloc which may fail.
All other places that reference BN_one() check the return value.

Closes#12129
As described in https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/12129 the
readability of the internal functions providing the two alternative
implementations for `BN_mod_inverse()` is a bit lacking.
Both these functions are now completely internal, so we have the
flexibility needed to slightly improve readability and remove
unnecessary NULL checks.
The main changes here are:
- rename `BN_mod_inverse_no_branch()` as `bn_mod_inverse_no_branch()`:
this function is `static` so it is not even visible within the rest of
libcrypto. By convention upcase prefixes are reserved for public
functions.
- remove `if (pnoinv == NULL)` checks in `int_bn_mod_inverse()`: this
function is internal to the BN module and we can guarantee that all
callers pass non-NULL arguments.
- `bn_mod_inverse_no_branch()` takes an extra `int *pnoinv` argument, so
that it can signal if no inverse exists for the given inputs: in this
way the caller is in charge of raising `BN_R_NO_INVERSE` as it is the
case for the non-consttime implementation of `int_bn_mod_inverse()`.
- `BN_mod_inverse()` is a public function and must guarantee that the
internal functions providing the actual implementation receive valid
arguments. If the caller passes a NULL `BN_CTX` we create a temporary
one for internal use.
- reorder function definitions in `crypto/bn/bn_gcd.c` to avoid forward
declaration of `static` functions (in preparation for inlining).
- inline `bn_mod_inverse_no_branch()`.

PR https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/10122 introduced changes to
the BN_gcd function and the control logic inside it accessed `g->d[0]`
irrespective of `g->top`.
When BN_add is called, in case the result is zero, `BN_zero` is called.
The latter behaves differently depending on the API compatibility level
flag: normally `g->d[0]` is cleared but in `no-deprecated` builds only
`g->top` is set to zero.
This commit uses bitwise logic to ensure that `g` is treated as zero if
`g->top` is zero, irrespective of `g->d[0]`.

local header files, which are located next to source files in the source

This commit changes the different suffixes to '*_local.h' uniformly.

The function rsa_ossl_mod_exp uses the function BN_with_flags to create a
temporary copy (local_r1) of a BIGNUM (r1) with modified flags. This
temporary copy shares some state with the original r1. If the state of r1
gets updated then local_r1's state will be stale. This was occurring in the
function so that when local_r1 was freed a call to bn_check_top was made
which failed an assert due to the stale state. To resolve this we must free
local_r1 immediately after we have finished using it and not wait until the
end of the function.
This problem prompted a review of all BN_with_flag usage within the
codebase. All other usage appears to be correct, although often not
obviously so. This commit refactors things to make it much clearer for
these other uses.
