of libcrypto, then it is possible that when they are loaded they will share
the same static data as the loading application/library. This means it will
be too late to set memory/ERR/ex_data/[etc] callbacks, but entirely
unnecessary to try. This change puts a static variable in the core ENGINE
code (contained in libcrypto) and a function returning a pointer to it. If
the loaded ENGINE's return value from this function matches the loading
application/library's return value - they share static data. If they don't
match, the loaded ENGINE has its own copy of libcrypto's static data and so
the callbacks need to be set.
Also, although 0.9.7 hasn't been released yet, it's clear this will
introduce a binary incompatibility between dynamic ENGINEs built for 0.9.7
and 0.9.8 (though others probably exist already from EC_*** hooks and
what-not) - so the version control values are correspondingly bumped.

This change was originally introduced in OpenBSD's tracking of OpenSSL.
Additional changes:
- use EC_GROUP_get_degree() in apps/req.c
- add ECDSA and ECDH to apps/speed.c
- adds support for EC curves over binary fields to ECDSA
- new function EC_KEY_up_ref() in crypto/ec/ec_key.c
- reorganize crypto/ecdsa/ecdsatest.c
- add engine support for ECDH
- fix a few bugs in ECDSA engine support

des_old.h redefines crypt:
#define crypt(b,s)\
DES_crypt((b),(s))
This scheme leads to failure, if header files with the OS's true definition
of crypt() are processed _after_ des_old.h was processed. This is e.g. the
case on HP-UX with unistd.h.
As evp.h now again includes des.h (which includes des_old.h), this problem
only came up after this modification.
Solution: move header files (indirectly) including e_os.h before the header
files (indirectly) including evp.h.
