Changes between 1.1.1 and 3.0.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
*) Introduced new error raising macros, ERR_raise() and ERR_raise_data(),
where the former acts as a replacement for ERR_put_error(), and the
latter replaces the combination ERR_put_error()+ERR_add_error_data().
ERR_raise_data() adds more flexibility by taking a format string and
an arbitrary number of arguments following it, to be processed with
BIO_snprintf().
[Richard Levitte]
*) Introduced a new function, OSSL_PROVIDER_available(), which can be used
to check if a named provider is loaded and available. When called, it
will also activate all fallback providers if such are still present.
