The EVP_CIPHER_CTX_iv() family of functions are incompatible with the libcrypto/provider separation, since the implied API contract (they are undocumented) involves a pointer into the active cipher context structure. However, the active IV data in a provider-side context need not even be in the same address space as libcrypto, so a replacement API is needed. The existing functions for accessing the (even the "original") IV had remained undocumented for quite some time, presumably due to unease about exposing the internals of the cipher state in such a manner. Provide more maintainable new APIs for accessing the initial ("oiv") and current-state ("iv") IV data, that copy the value into a caller-provided array, eliminating the need to provide a pointer into the internal cipher context, which accordingly no longer provides the ability to write to the internal cipher state. Unfortunately, in order to maintain API compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1, the old functionality is still available, but is marked as deprecated for future removal. This would entail removing the "octet pointer" parameter access, leaving only the "octet string" parameter type.
