The manual pages require for some API functions that the 'random number
generator must be seeded' before calling the function. Initially, this
was meant literally, i.e. the OpenSSL CSPRNG had to be seeded manually
before calling these functions.
Since version 1.1.1, the CSPRNG is seeded automatically on first use,
so it's not the responsibility of the programmer anymore. Still, he
needs to be aware that the seeding might fail.

(cherry picked from commit 262c00882a)
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.

The EVP_MD_CTX_cleanup() function was merged into EVP_MD_CTX_reset()
which is called by EVP_MD_CTX_free(). Adjust the documentation to say
that the latter should be used to avoid leaking memory.

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.

Add "single part" digest sign and verify functions. These sign and verify
a message in one function. This simplifies some operations and it will later
be used as the API for algorithms which do not support the update/final
mechanism (e.g. PureEdDSA).
