RAND_pseudo_bytes() allows random data to be returned even in low entropy
conditions. Sometimes this is ok. Many times it is not. For the avoidance
of any doubt, replace existing usage of RAND_pseudo_bytes() with
RAND_bytes().

This change adds CRYPTO_memcmp, which compares two vectors of bytes in
an amount of time that's independent of their contents. It also changes
several MAC compares in the code to use this over the standard memcmp,
which may leak information about the size of a matching prefix.

I have tried to convert 'len' type variable declarations to unsigned as a
means to address these warnings when appropriate, but when in doubt I have
used casts in the comparisons instead. The better solution (that would get
us all lynched by API users) would be to go through and convert all the
function prototypes and structure definitions to use unsigned variables
except when signed is necessary. The proliferation of (signed) "int" for
strictly non-negative uses is unfortunate.

same as RAND_seed() but takes an estimate of the entropy as an additional
argument.
While modifying the sources, I found some inconsistencies on the use of
s->cert vs. s->session->sess_cert; I don't know if those could
really have caused problems, but possibly this is a proper bug-fix
and not just a clean-up.
called sess_cert instead of just cert. This is in preparation of further
changes: Probably often when s->session->sess_cert is used, we should
use s->cert instead; s->session->sess_cert should be a new structure
containing only the stuff that is for just one connection (e.g.
the peer's certificate, which the SSL client implementations currently
store in s->session->[sess_]cert, which is a very confusing thing to do).
