8b1a5af389 Don't build RC4 ciphersuites into libssl by default
RC4 based ciphersuites in libssl have been disabled by default. They can
be added back by building OpenSSL with the "enable-weak-ssl-ciphers"
Configure option at compile time.

a528d4f0a9 Remove SSLeay history, etc., from docs
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.

c84f7f4a74 Change the DEFAULT ciphersuites to exclude DES, RC4 and RC2
This patch updates the "DEFAULT" cipherstring to be
"ALL:!COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT:!eNULL". COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT is now defined
internally by a flag on each ciphersuite indicating whether it should be
excluded from DEFAULT or not. This gives us control at an individual
ciphersuite level as to exactly what is in DEFAULT and what is not.

Finally all DES, RC4 and RC2 ciphersuites are added to COMPLEMENTOFDEFAULT
and hence removed from DEFAULT.

13f8eb4730 Remove export static DH ciphersuites
Remove support for the two export grade static DH ciphersuites. These two
ciphersuites were newly added (along with a number of other static DH
ciphersuites) to 1.0.2. However the two export ones have *never* worked
since they were introduced. It seems strange in any case to be adding new
export ciphersuites, and given "logjam" it also does not seem correct to
fix them.

5a21cadbeb use SSL_kDHE throughout instead of SSL_kEDH
DHE is the standard term used by the RFCs and by other TLS
implementations.  It's useful to have the internal variables use the
standard terminology.

This patch leaves a synonym SSL_kEDH in place, though, so that older
code can still be built against it, since that has been the
traditional API.  SSL_kEDH should probably be deprecated at some
point, though.
