Document DSA and SHA. New function BN_pseudo_rand(). Use BN_prime_checks_size(BN_num_bits(w)) rounds of Miller-Rabin when generating DSA primes (why not use BN_is_prime()?)

DSA_dup_DH - create a DH structure out of DSA structure
Document DSA and SHA. New function BN_pseudo_rand(). Use BN_prime_checks_size(BN_num_bits(w)) rounds of Miller-Rabin when generating DSA primes (why not use BN_is_prime()?)

=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/dsa.h>
doc/man3: reformat the function prototypes in the synopses I tried hard to keep the lines at 80 characters or less, but in a few cases I had to punt and just indented the subsequent lines by 4 spaces. A few well-placed typedefs for callback functions would really help, but these would be part of the API, so that's probably for later. I also took the liberty of inserting empty lines in overlong blocks to provide some visual space.

=head1 DESCRIPTION
DSA_dup_DH() duplicates DSA parameters/keys as DH parameters/keys. q
is lost during that conversion, but the resulting DH parameters
contain its length.
