Remove sign/verify and required_pkey_type fields of EVP_MD: these are a
legacy from when digests were linked to public key types. All signing is
now handled by the corresponding EVP_PKEY_METHOD.
Only allow supported digest types in RSA EVP_PKEY_METHOD: other algorithms
already block unsupported types.
Remove now obsolete EVP_dss1() and EVP_ecdsa().

If something was "present in all versions" of SSLeay, or if it was
added to a version of SSLeay (and therefore predates OpenSSL),
remove mention of it. Documentation history now starts with OpenSSL.
Remove mention of all history before OpenSSL 0.9.8, inclusive.
Remove all AUTHOR sections.

L<foo|foo> is sub-optimal If the xref is the same as the title,
which is what we do, then you only need L<foo>. This fixes all
1457 occurrences in 349 files. Approximately. (And pod used to
need both.)

Remove support for SHA0 and DSS0 (they were broken), and remove
the ability to attempt to build without SHA (it didn't work).
For simplicity, remove the option of not building various SHA algorithms;
you could argue that SHA_224/256/384/512 should be kept, since they're
like crypto algorithms, but I decided to go the other way.
So these options are gone:
GENUINE_DSA OPENSSL_NO_SHA0
OPENSSL_NO_SHA OPENSSL_NO_SHA1
OPENSSL_NO_SHA224 OPENSSL_NO_SHA256
OPENSSL_NO_SHA384 OPENSSL_NO_SHA512

RT1665: aes documentation.
Paul Green wrote a nice aes.pod file.
But we now encourage the EVP interface.
So I took his RT item and used it as impetus to add
the AES modes to EVP_EncryptInit.pod
I also noticed that rc4.pod has spurious references to some other
cipher pages, so I removed them.
RT2300: Clean up MD history (merged into RT1665)
Put HISTORY section only in EVP_DigestInit.pod. Also add words
to discourage use of older cipher-specific API, and remove SEE ALSO
links that point to them.
Make sure digest pages have a NOTE that says use EVP_DigestInit.
Review feedback:
More cleanup in EVP_EncryptInit.pod
Fixed SEE ALSO links in ripemd160.pod, sha.pod, mdc2.pod, blowfish.pod,
rc4.d, and des.pod. Re-order sections in des.pod for consistency

PR#3071
The primary changes made are:
- Updates to the "NAME" section of many pages to correctly reflect the
functions defined on those pages. This section is automatically parsed
by the util/extract-names.pl script, so if it is not correct then
running "man" will not correctly locate the right manual pages.
- Updates to take account of where functions are now deprecated
- Full documentation of the ec sub-library
- A number of other typo corrections and other minor tweaks
