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.
seed to: this doesn't introduce any binary compatibility issues as the
function is only used internally.
The seed output is needed for FIPS 140-2 algorithm testing: the functionality
used to be in DSA_generate_parameters_ex() but was removed in OpenSSL 1.0.0
Remove certain redundant BN_zero() initialisations, because BN_CTX_get(),
BN_init(), [etc] already initialise to zero.
Correct error checking in bn_sqr.c, and be less wishy-wash about how/why
the result's 'top' value is set (note also, 'max' is always > 0 at this
point).
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 :-)
