The function rsa_ossl_mod_exp uses the function BN_with_flags to create a
temporary copy (local_r1) of a BIGNUM (r1) with modified flags. This
temporary copy shares some state with the original r1. If the state of r1
gets updated then local_r1's state will be stale. This was occurring in the
function so that when local_r1 was freed a call to bn_check_top was made
which failed an assert due to the stale state. To resolve this we must free
local_r1 immediately after we have finished using it and not wait until the
end of the function.
This problem prompted a review of all BN_with_flag usage within the
codebase. All other usage appears to be correct, although often not
obviously so. This commit refactors things to make it much clearer for
these other uses.

Add secure heap for storage of private keys (when possible).
Add BIO_s_secmem(), CBIGNUM, etc.
Add BIO_CTX_secure_new so all BIGNUM's in the context are secure.

There are header files in crypto/ that are used by a number of crypto/
submodules. Move those to crypto/include/internal and adapt the
affected source code and Makefiles.
The header files that got moved are:

Just as with the OPENSSL_malloc calls, consistently use sizeof(*ptr)
for memset and memcpy. Remove needless casts for those functions.
For memset, replace alternative forms of zero with 0.

For a local variable:
TYPE *p;
Allocations like this are "risky":
p = OPENSSL_malloc(sizeof(TYPE));
if the type of p changes, and the malloc call isn't updated, you
could get memory corruption. Instead do this:
p = OPENSSL_malloc(sizeof(*p));
Also fixed a few memset() calls that I noticed while doing this.

Sometimes it fails to format them very well, and sometimes it corrupts them!

This is actually ok for this function, but initialised to zero anyway if
PURIFY defined.
This does have the impact of masking any *real* unitialised data reads in bn though.
Patch based on approach suggested by Rich Salz.

CHANGES
knock-on work than expected - they've been extracted into a patch
series that can be completed elsewhere, or in a different branch,
before merging back to HEAD.
- Remove unused and unuseful debug cruft.
- Remove unnecessary 'top' fudging from BN_copy().
- Fix a potential memory leak and simplify the expansion logic in
BN_bin2bn().

Yet another question: some time ago you changed BN_set_word.
Why didn't you change BN_get_word as well?
Quite. I'm also removing the older commented-out implementations to improve
readability. This complex stuff seems to date from a time when the types
didn't match up well.

- Remove some unnecessary "+1"-like fudges. Sizes should be handled
exactly, as enlarging size parameters causes needless bloat and may just
make bugs less likely rather than fixing them: bn_expand() macro,
bn_expand_internal(), and BN_sqr().
- Deprecate bn_dup_expand() - it's new since 0.9.7, unused, and not that
useful.
- Remove unnecessary zeroing of unused bytes in bn_expand2().
- Rewrite BN_set_word() - it should be much simpler, the previous
complexities probably date from old mismatched type issues.
- Add missing bn_check_top() macros in bn_word.c
- Improve some degenerate case handling in BN_[add|sub]_word(), add
comments, and avoid a bignum expansion if an overflow isn't possible.
