between NIDs and the more common NIST names such as "P-256". Enhance
ecparam utility and ECC method to recognise the NIST names for curves.
(backport from HEAD)
- hide the EC_KEY structure definition in ec_lcl.c + add
some functions to use/access the EC_KEY fields
- change the way how method specific data (ecdsa/ecdh) is
attached to a EC_KEY
- add ECDSA_sign_ex and ECDSA_do_sign_ex functions with
additional parameters for pre-computed values
- rebuild libeay.num from 0.9.7
exit() in whatever way works for the intended platform, and define
OPENSSL_EXIT() to have the old meaning (the name is of course because
it's only used in the openssl program)
(the same keys can be used for ECC schemes other than ECDSA)
and add some new options.
Similarly, use string "EC PARAMETERS" instead of "ECDSA PARAMETERS"
in 'PEM' format.
Fix ec_asn1.c (take into account the desired conversion form).
'make update'.
