The warning reads "[cast] may cause misaligned access". Even though
this can be application-supplied pointer, misaligned access shouldn't
happen, because structure type is "encoded" into data itself, and
application would customarily pass correctly aligned pointer. But
there is no harm in resolving the warning...

Conceptually, this is a squashed version of:
Revert "Address feedback"
This reverts commit 75551e07bd.
and
Revert "Add CRYPTO_thread_glock_new"
This reverts commit ed6b2c7938.
But there were some intervening commits that made neither revert apply
cleanly, so instead do it all as one shot.
The crypto global locks were an attempt to cope with the awkward
POSIX semantics for pthread_atfork(); its documentation (the "RATIONALE"
section) indicates that the expected usage is to have the prefork handler
lock all "global" locks, and the parent and child handlers release those
locks, to ensure that forking happens with a consistent (lock) state.
However, the set of functions available in the child process is limited
to async-signal-safe functions, and pthread_mutex_unlock() is not on
the list of async-signal-safe functions! The only synchronization
primitives that are async-signal-safe are the semaphore primitives,
which are not really appropriate for general-purpose usage.
However, the state consistency problem that the global locks were
attempting to solve is not actually a serious problem, particularly for
OpenSSL. That is, we can consider four cases of forking application
that might use OpenSSL:
(1) Single-threaded, does not call into OpenSSL in the child (e.g.,
the child calls exec() immediately)
For this class of process, no locking is needed at all, since there is
only ever a single thread of execution and the only reentrancy is due to
signal handlers (which are themselves limited to async-signal-safe
operation and should not be doing much work at all).
(2) Single-threaded, calls into OpenSSL after fork()
The application must ensure that it does not fork() with an unexpected
lock held (that is, one that would get unlocked in the parent but
accidentally remain locked in the child and cause deadlock). Since
OpenSSL does not expose any of its internal locks to the application
and the application is single-threaded, the OpenSSL internal locks
will be unlocked for the fork(), and the state will be consistent.
(OpenSSL will need to reseed its PRNG in the child, but that is
an orthogonal issue.) If the application makes use of locks from
libcrypto, proper handling for those locks is the responsibility of
the application, as for any other locking primitive that is available
for application programming.
(3) Multi-threaded, does not call into OpenSSL after fork()
As for (1), the OpenSSL state is only relevant in the parent, so
no particular fork()-related handling is needed. The internal locks
are relevant, but there is no interaction with the child to consider.
(4) Multi-threaded, calls into OpenSSL after fork()
This is the case where the pthread_atfork() hooks to ensure that all
global locks are in a known state across fork() would come into play,
per the above discussion. However, these "calls into OpenSSL after
fork()" are still subject to the restriction to async-signal-safe
functions. Since OpenSSL uses all sorts of locking and libc functions
that are not on the list of safe functions (e.g., malloc()), this
case is not currently usable and is unlikely to ever be usable,
independently of the locking situation. So, there is no need to
go through contortions to attempt to support this case in the one small
area of locking interaction with fork().
In light of the above analysis (thanks @davidben and @achernya), go
back to the simpler implementation that does not need to distinguish
"library-global" locks or to have complicated atfork handling for locks.

return true for characters > 127. I.e. they are allowing extended ASCII
characters through which then cause problems. E.g. marking superscript '2' as
a number then causes the common (ch - '0') conversion to number to fail
miserably. Likewise letters with diacritical marks can also cause problems.
If a non-ASCII character set is being used (currently only EBCDIC), it is
adjusted for.
The implementation uses a single table with a bit for each of the defined
classes. These functions accept an int argument and fail for
values out of range or for characters outside of the ASCII set. They will
work for both signed and unsigned character inputs.

The existing BIO_lookup() wraps a call to getaddrinfo and provides an
abstracted capability to lookup addresses based on socket type and family.
However it provides no ability to lookup based on protocol. Normally,
when dealing with TCP/UDP this is not required. However getaddrinfo (at
least on linux) never returns SCTP addresses unless you specifically ask
for them in the protocol field. Therefore BIO_lookup_ex() is added which
provides the protocol field.

Certain functions are automatically called during auto-deinit in order
to deallocate resources. However, if we have never entered a function which
marks lib crypto as inited then they never get called. This can happen if
the user only ever makes use of a small sub-set of functions that don't hit
the auto-init code.
This commit ensures all such resources deallocated by these functions also
init libcrypto when they are initially allocated.

On VMS, the C compiler can work with 32-bit and 64-bit pointers, and
the command line determines what the initial pointer size shall be.
However, there is some functionality that only works with 32-bit
pointers. In this case, it's gethostbyname(), getservbyname() and
accompanying structures, so we need to make sure that we define our
own pointers as 32-bit ones.
Furthermore, there seems to be a bug in VMS C netdb.h, where struct
addrinfo is always defined with 32-bit pointers no matter what, but
the functions handling it are adapted to the initial pointer size.
This leads to pointer size warnings when compiling with
/POINTER_SIZE=64. The workaround is to force struct addrinfo to be
the 64-bit variant if the initial pointer size is 64.

The actual bug with current getnameinfo() on VMS is not that it puts
gibberish in the service buffer, but that it doesn't touch it at all.
The gibberish we dealt with before was simply stuff that happened to
be on the stack.
It's better to initialise the service buffer properly (with the empty
string) and check if it's still an empty string after the
getnameinfo() call, and fill it with the direct numerical translation
of the raw port if that's the case.
