ddc6a5c8f5 Add RAND_priv_bytes() for private keys
Add a new global DRBG for private keys used by RAND_priv_bytes.

Add BN_priv_rand() and BN_priv_rand_range() which use RAND_priv_bytes().
Change callers to use the appropriate BN_priv... function.

5ecff87d66 BN_pseudo_rand is really BN_rand
And BN_pseudo_rand_range is really BN_rand_range.
Document that we might deprecate those functions.

a95d7574db Various doc fixes
Fix a =head1 section name
Fix a typo in POD label
Remove a spurious =back
Add a missing blank line
Avoid 'legacy' -- use 'deprecated' if still needed if we cannot just reword.
Always do strict checking
Do not warn about missing "RETURN VALUES" unless -s is set.
Change OpenSSL version 1.1 -> 1.1.0
