bebbb11d13 RT3239: Extra comma in NAME lines of two manpages
In two OpenSSL manual pages, in the NAME section, the last word of the
name list is followed by a stray trailing comma. While this may seem
minor, it is worth fixing because it may confuse some makewhatis(8)
implementations.

While here, also add the missing word "size" to the one line
description in SSL_CTX_set_max_cert_list(3).

6e6ba36d98 Clarified that the signature's buffer size, s, is not used as an
IN parameter.

Under the old docs, the only thing stated was "at most
EVP_PKEY_size(pkey) bytes will be written". It was kind of misleading
since it appears EVP_PKEY_size(pkey) WILL be written regardless of the
signature's buffer size.
