There was a trailing :w at a line, which didn't make sense in context
of the sentence/styling. Removed it, because I think it's a leftover
vi command.

(cherry picked from commit 143b631639)
Historically (i.e., OpenSSL 1.0.x), the openssl applications would
allow for empty subject attributes to be passed via the -subj argument,
e.g., `opensl req -subj '/CN=joe/O=/OU=local' ...`. Commit
db4c08f019 applied a badly needed rewrite
to the parse_name() helper function that parses these strings, but
in the process dropped a check that would skip attributes with no
associated value. As a result, such strings are now treated as
hard errors and the operation fails.
Restore the check to skip empty attribute values and restore
the historical behavior.
Document the behavior for empty subject attribute values in the
corresponding applications' manual pages.

Previously you had to supply "null" as the digest to use EdDSA. This changes
things so that any digest is ignored.

Using the ca application to sign certificates with EdDSA failed because it
is not possible to set the digest to "null". This adds the capability and
updates the documentation accordingly.

It is quite likely for there to be multiple certificates with empty
subjects, which are still distinct because of subjectAltName. Therefore
we allow multiple certificates with an empty Subject even if
unique_subject is set to yes.

Standardized the -rand flag and added a new one:
-rand file...
Always reads the specified files
-writerand file
Always writes to the file on exit
For apps that use a config file, the RANDFILE config parameter reads
the file at startup (to seed the RNG) and write to it on exit if
the -writerand flag isn't used.
Ensured that every app that took -rand also took -writerand, and
made sure all of that agreed with all the documentation.
