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.

I tried hard to keep the lines at 80 characters or less, but in a few
cases I had to punt and just indented the subsequent lines by 4 spaces.
A few well-placed typedefs for callback functions would really help, but
these would be part of the API, so that's probably for later.
I also took the liberty of inserting empty lines in overlong blocks to
provide some visual space.

This can be used by engines that need to retain the data for a longer time
than just the call where this user data is passed.

There are cases when, if you pass a NULL UI_METHOD, the called
function will use an internal default. This is well and good, but
there may be cases when this is undesirable and one would rather send
in a UI that does absolutely nothing (sort of a /dev/null). UI_null()
is the UI_METHOD for this purpose.
