e85d19c68e crypto/cms: Add support for CAdES Basic Electronic Signatures (CAdES-BES)
A CAdES Basic Electronic Signature (CAdES-BES) contains, among other
specifications, a collection of  Signing Certificate reference attributes,
stored in the signedData ether as ESS signing-certificate or as
ESS signing-certificate-v2. These are described in detail in Section 5.7.2
of RFC 5126 - CMS Advanced Electronic Signatures (CAdES).

This patch adds support for adding  ESS signing-certificate[-v2] attributes
to CMS signedData. Although it implements only a small part of the RFC, it
is sufficient many cases to enable the `openssl cms` app to create signatures
which comply with legal requirements of some European States (e.g Italy).

fc5ecaddd0 man: harmonize the various formulations in the HISTORY sections
While stereotyped repetitions are frowned upon in literature, they
serve a useful purpose in manual pages, because it is easier for
the user to find certain information if it is always presented in
the same way. For that reason, this commit harmonizes the varying
formulations in the HISTORY section about which functions, flags,
etc. were added in which OpenSSL version.

It also attempts to make the pod files more grep friendly by
avoiding to insert line breaks between the symbol names and the
corresponding version number in which they were introduced
(wherever possible). Some punctuation and typographical errors
were fixed on the way.

3ee1eac27a Standardize apps use of -rand, etc.
Standardized the -rand flag and added a new one:
    -rand file...
            Always reads the specified files
    -writerand file
            Always writes to the file on exit

For apps that use a config file, the RANDFILE config parameter reads
the file at startup (to seed the RNG) and write to it on exit if
the -writerand flag isn't used.

Ensured that every app that took -rand also took -writerand, and
made sure all of that agreed with all the documentation.

Fix error reporting in write_file and -rand
