The core now supplies its own versions of ERR_new(), ERR_set_debug()
and ERR_vset_error(). This should suffice for a provider to have any
OpenSSL compatible functionlity it desires.
The main difference between the ERR functions and the core
counterparts is that the core counterparts take an OSSL_PROVIDER
parameter instead of the library number. That way, providers do not
need to know what number they have been assigned, that information
stays in the core.

The base functions are the first tables of function pointers that
libcrypto and the provider pass to each other, thereby providing a
baseline with which they can communicate further with each other.
This also contains an example for a ficticious provider, providing an
implement of a fictitious algorithm for a fictitious operation.
