aaed77c55e Option to disable padding extension.
Add TLS padding extension to SSL_OP_ALL so it is used with other
"bugs" options and can be turned off.

This replaces SSL_OP_SSLREF2_REUSE_CERT_TYPE_BUG which is an ancient
option referring to SSLv2 and SSLREF.

23f5908ac7 POD: Fix item numbering
Newer pod2man considers =item [1-9] part of a numbered list, while =item
0 starts an unnumbered list. Add a zero effect formatting mark to override
this.

08f8933fa3 Fix POD errors to stop make install_docs dying with pod2man 2.5.0+
podlators 2.5.0 has switched to dying on POD syntax errors. This means
that a bunch of long-standing erroneous POD in the openssl documentation
now leads to fatal errors from pod2man, halting installation.

Unfortunately POD constraints mean that you have to sort numeric lists
in ascending order if they start with 1: you cannot do 1, 0, 2 even if
you want 1 to appear first. I've reshuffled such (alas, I wish there
were a better way but I don't know of one).

acc9938ba5 Add SHA2 algorithms to SSL_library_init(). Although these aren't used
directly by SSL/TLS SHA2 certificates are becoming more common and
applications that only call SSL_library_init() and not
OpenSSL_add_all_alrgorithms() will fail when verifying certificates.
