slontis 820723dde0 Add d2i_PUBKEY_ex_fp and d2i_PUBKEY_ex_bio. 
These functions pass a library content and prop query.
The i2d documentation related to these functions has been corrected since the bio and fp functions always return 0 or 1.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
The B<X509_PUBKEY> structure represents the ASN.1 B<SubjectPublicKeyInfo>
structure defined in RFC5280 and used in certificates and certificate requests.
X509_PUBKEY_new_ex() allocates and initializes an B<X509_PUBKEY> structure
associated with the given B<OSSL_LIB_CTX> in the I<libctx> parameter. Any
algorithm fetches associated with using the B<X509_PUBKEY> object will use
the property query string I<propq>. See L<crypto(7)/ALGORITHM FETCHING> for
further information about algorithm fetching.
X509_PUBKEY_new() is the same as X509_PUBKEY_new_ex() except that the default
(NULL) B<OSSL_LIB_CTX> and a NULL property query string are used.
X509_PUBKEY_dup() creates a duplicate copy of the B<X509_PUBKEY> object
specified by I<a>.
X509_PUBKEY_free() frees up B<X509_PUBKEY> structure I<a>. If I<a> is NULL
nothing is done.
X509_PUBKEY_set() sets the public key in I<*x> to the public key contained
in the B<EVP_PKEY> structure I<pkey>. If I<*x> is not NULL any existing
public key structure will be freed.
X509_PUBKEY_get0() returns the public key contained in I<key>. The returned
value is an internal pointer which B<MUST NOT> be freed after use.
X509_PUBKEY_get() is similar to X509_PUBKEY_get0() except the reference
count on the returned key is incremented so it B<MUST> be freed using
EVP_PKEY_free() after use.
d2i_PUBKEY_ex() decodes an B<EVP_PKEY> structure using B<SubjectPublicKeyInfo>
format. Some public key decoding implementations may use cryptographic
algorithms. In this case the supplied library context I<libctx> and property
query string I<propq> are used.
d2i_PUBKEY() does the same as d2i_PUBKEY_ex() except that the default
library context and property query string are used.
i2d_PUBKEY() encodes an B<EVP_PKEY> structure using B<SubjectPublicKeyInfo>
format.
d2i_PUBKEY_bio(), d2i_PUBKEY_fp(), i2d_PUBKEY_bio() and i2d_PUBKEY_fp() are
similar to d2i_PUBKEY() and i2d_PUBKEY() except they decode or encode using a
B<BIO> or B<FILE> pointer.
d2i_PUBKEY_ex_bio() and d2i_PUBKEY_ex_fp() are similar to d2i_PUBKEY_ex() except
they decode using a B<BIO> or B<FILE> pointer.
X509_PUBKEY_set0_public_key() sets the public-key encoding of I<pub>
to the I<penclen> bytes contained in buffer I<penc>.
Any earlier public-key encoding in I<pub> is freed.
I<penc> may be NULL to indicate that there is no actual public key data.
Ownership of the I<penc> argument is passed to I<pub>.
X509_PUBKEY_set0_param() sets the public-key parameters of I<pub>.
The OID associated with the algorithm is set to I<aobj>. The type of the
algorithm parameters is set to I<type> using the structure I<pval>.
If I<penc> is not NULL the encoding of the public key itself is set
to the I<penclen> bytes contained in buffer I<penc> and
any earlier public-key encoding in I<pub> is freed.
On success ownership of all the supplied arguments is passed to I<pub>
so they must not be freed after the call.
X509_PUBKEY_get0_param() retrieves the public key parameters from I<pub>,
I<*ppkalg> is set to the associated OID and the encoding consists of
I<*ppklen> bytes at I<*pk>, I<*pa> is set to the associated
AlgorithmIdentifier for the public key. If the value of any of these
parameters is not required it can be set to NULL. All of the
retrieved pointers are internal and must not be freed after the
call.
X509_PUBKEY_eq() compares two B<X509_PUBKEY> values.
=head1 NOTES
The B<X509_PUBKEY> functions can be used to encode and decode public keys
in a standard format.
In many cases applications will not call the B<X509_PUBKEY> functions
directly: they will instead call wrapper functions such as X509_get0_pubkey().
=head1 RETURN VALUES
If the allocation fails, X509_PUBKEY_new() and X509_PUBKEY_dup() return
NULL and set an error code that can be obtained by L<ERR_get_error(3)>.
Otherwise they return a pointer to the newly allocated structure.
X509_PUBKEY_free() does not return a value.
X509_PUBKEY_get0(), X509_PUBKEY_get(), d2i_PUBKEY_ex(), d2i_PUBKEY(),
d2i_PUBKEY_ex_bio(), d2i_PUBKEY_bio(), d2i_PUBKEY_ex_fp() and d2i_PUBKEY_fp()
return a pointer to an B<EVP_PKEY> structure or NULL if an error occurs.
i2d_PUBKEY() returns the number of bytes successfully encoded or a
negative value if an error occurs.
i2d_PUBKEY_fp() and i2d_PUBKEY_bio() return 1 if successfully
encoded or 0 if an error occurs.
X509_PUBKEY_set0_public_key() does not return a value.
X509_PUBKEY_set(), X509_PUBKEY_set0_param() and X509_PUBKEY_get0_param()
return 1 for success and 0 if an error occurred.
X509_PUBKEY_eq() returns 1 for equal, 0 for different, and < 0 on error.

=head1 HISTORY
The X509_PUBKEY_new_ex() and X509_PUBKEY_eq() functions were added in OpenSSL

functions were added in OpenSSL 3.2.
