0e4aa0d2d2 As with RSA, which was modified recently, this change makes it possible to
override key-generation implementations by placing handlers in the methods
for DSA and DH. Also, parameter generation for DSA and DH is possible by
another new handler for each method.

e9224c7177 This is a first-cut at improving the callback mechanisms used in
key-generation and prime-checking functions. Rather than explicitly passing
callback functions and caller-defined context data for the callbacks, a new
structure BN_GENCB is defined that encapsulates this; a pointer to the
structure is passed to all such functions instead.

This wrapper structure allows the encapsulation of "old" and "new" style
callbacks - "new" callbacks return a boolean result on the understanding
that returning FALSE should terminate keygen/primality processing.  The
BN_GENCB abstraction will allow future callback modifications without
needing to break binary compatibility nor change the API function
prototypes. The new API functions have been given names ending in "_ex" and
the old functions are implemented as wrappers to the new ones.  The
OPENSSL_NO_DEPRECATED symbol has been introduced so that, if defined,
declaration of the older functions will be skipped. NB: Some
openssl-internal code will stick with the older callbacks for now, so
appropriate "#undef" logic will be put in place - this is in case the user
is *building* openssl (rather than *including* its headers) with this
symbol defined.

There is another change in the new _ex functions; the key-generation
functions do not return key structures but operate on structures passed by
the caller, the return value is a boolean. This will allow for a smoother
transition to having key-generation as "virtual function" in the various
***_METHOD tables.

9b141126d4 New functions BN_CTX_start(), BN_CTX_get(), BN_CTX_end() to access
temporary BIGNUMs. BN_CTX still uses a fixed number of BIGNUMs, but
the BN_CTX implementation could now easily be changed.
