Move compression, point2oct and oct2point functions into separate files.
Add a flags field to EC_METHOD.
Add a flag EC_FLAGS_DEFAULT_OCT to use the default compession and oct functions
(all existing methods do this). This removes dependencies from EC_METHOD while
keeping original functionality.
Backport from HEAD with minor changes.
the new method names where _GF... suffixes have been removed.
Revert changes to ..._{get/set}_Jprojective_coordinates_...:
The current implementation for ECC over binary fields does not use
projective coordinates, and if it did, it would not use Jacobian
projective coordinates; so it's OK to use the ..._GFp prefix for all
this.
Add author attributions to some files so that it doesn't look
as if Sun wrote all of this :-)
EC_GROUP_{set_generator,get_generator,get_order,get_cofactor} are
implemented directly in crypto/ec/ec_lib.c and not dispatched to
methods.
Also fix EC_GROUP_copy to copy the NID.
Add some WTLS curves.
New function EC_GROUP_check() (this will probably
be implemented differently soon).
