0189bf2bbe Document UTF-8 expectation for pass phrases passed to OSSL_STORE
After some discussion, it was concluded that the better idea is to
stipulate that the pass phrases passed to the OSSL_STORE API are
expected to be UTF-8 encoded, and that all objects made accessible
through OSSL_STORE URIs should adhere to this expectation (at the
discretion of the loaders).

b7fb239438 Revert "Add OPENSSL_VERSION_AT_LEAST"
Fixes #5961

This reverts commit 3c5a61dd0f.

The macros OPENSSL_MAKE_VERSION() and OPENSSL_VERSION_AT_LEAST() contain
errors and don't work as designed. Apart from that, their introduction
should be held back until a decision has been mad about the future
versioning scheme.

a8ca496ddb Split the scrypt and RSA-PSS into man3 and man7 pages
The scrypt and RSA-PSS documents were a mixture of section 3 and
section 7 material.  With pre-1.1.1 OpenSSL, this is understandable,
since we had a different directory layout.  With 1.1.1, we've moved to
the typical man-page directory layout, and the documents need to be
updated accordingly.

Also, the scrypt document contained a description of
EVP_PKEY_CTX_set1_pbe_pass(), which is a generic function rather than
an scrypt specific function, and therefore should be documented
separately.

Fixes #5802

37933acbea Add SSL/SSL_CTX_use_cert_and_key()
Add functions that will do the work of assigning certificate, privatekey
and chain certs to an SSL or SSL_CTX. If no privatekey is given, use the
publickey. This will permit the keys to pass validation for both ECDSA
and RSA. If a private key has already been set for the certificate, it
is discarded. A real private key can be set later.

This is an all-or-nothing setting of these parameters. Unlike the
SSL/SSL_CTX_use_certificate() and SSL/SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey() functions,
the existing cert or privatekey is not modified (i.e. parameters copied).
This permits the existing cert/privatekey to be replaced.

It replaces the sequence of:
* SSL_use_certificate()
* SSL_use_privatekey()
* SSL_set1_chain()
And may actually be faster, as multiple checks are consolidated.

The private key can be NULL, if so an ENGINE module needs to contain the
actual private key that is to be used.

Note that ECDH (using the certificate's ECDSA key) ciphers do not work
without the private key being present, based on how the private key is
used in ECDH. ECDH does not offer PFS; ECDHE ciphers should be used instead.
