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.

A new method is added to EVP_PKEY_METH as:
int (*check) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx);
and to EVP_PKEY_ASN1_METHOD as:
int (*pkey_check) (EVP_PKEY_CTX *ctx);
This is used to check the validity of a specific key.
The order of calls is:
EVP_PKEY_check -> pmeth.check -> ameth.pkey_check.

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.

Enhance find-doc-nits to be better about finding typedefs for
callback functions. Fix all nits it now finds. Added some new
typedef names to ssl.h some of which were documented but did not
exist
