Rich Salz 9b86974e0c Fix L<> content in manpages
L<foo|foo> is sub-optimal  If the xref is the same as the title,
which is what we do, then you only need L<foo>.  This fixes all
1457 occurrences in 349 files.  Approximately.  (And pod used to
need both.)

=head1 NAME
ASN1_STRING_new, ASN1_STRING_type_new, ASN1_STRING_free -
ASN1_STRING allocation functions
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/asn1.h>
ASN1_STRING * ASN1_STRING_new(void);
ASN1_STRING * ASN1_STRING_type_new(int type);
void ASN1_STRING_free(ASN1_STRING *a);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
ASN1_STRING_new() returns an allocated B<ASN1_STRING> structure. Its type
is undefined.
ASN1_STRING_type_new() returns an allocated B<ASN1_STRING> structure of
type B<type>.
ASN1_STRING_free() frees up B<a>.
If B<a> is NULL nothing is done.
=head1 NOTES
Other string types call the B<ASN1_STRING> functions. For example
ASN1_OCTET_STRING_new() calls ASN1_STRING_type(V_ASN1_OCTET_STRING).
=head1 RETURN VALUES
ASN1_STRING_new() and ASN1_STRING_type_new() return a valid
ASN1_STRING structure or B<NULL> if an error occurred.
ASN1_STRING_free() does not return a value.
