Richard Levitte 1e55cbc874 DOCS: Move implementation specific docs away from provider-digest(7)
The provider- manuals are meant to describe the general interface for
their respective operation.  This is not the place to describe
implementation specific details.

This change creates a number of doc/man7/EVP_MD manuals, one for each
algorithm or set of algorithms, as well as doc/man7/EVP_MD-common.pod
to describe what's common to them all.

While we're at it, correct the SHA3 settable context params array to
match what's actually settable.

=head1 NAME
EVP_MD-MD5-SHA1 - The MD5-SHA1 EVP_MD implementation
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Support for computing MD5-SHA1 digests through the B<EVP_MD> API.
MD5-SHA1 is a rather special digest that's used with SSLv3.
=head2 Identity
This implementation is only available with the default provider, and is
identified with the name "MD5-SHA1".
=head2 Gettable Parameters
This implementation supports the common gettable parameters described
in L<EVP_MD-common(7)>.
=head2 Settable Context Parameters
This implementation supports the following L<OSSL_PARAM(3)> entries,
settable for an B<EVP_MD_CTX> with L<EVP_MD_CTX_set_params(3)>:
=over 4
=item "ssl3-ms" (B<OSSL_DIGEST_PARAM_SSL3_MS>) <octet string>
This parameter is set by libssl in order to calculate a signature hash for an
SSLv3 CertificateVerify message as per RFC6101.
It is only set after all handshake messages have already been digested via
OP_digest_update() calls.
The parameter provides the master secret value to be added to the digest.
The digest implementation should calculate the complete digest as per RFC6101
section 5.6.8.
The next call after setting this parameter should be OP_digest_final().
