There are header files in crypto/ that are used by a number of crypto/
submodules. Move those to crypto/include/internal and adapt the
affected source code and Makefiles.
The header files that got moved are:
crypto/cryptolib.h
crypto/md32_common.h

Just as with the OPENSSL_malloc calls, consistently use sizeof(*ptr)
for memset and memcpy. Remove needless casts for those functions.
For memset, replace alternative forms of zero with 0.

- Remove some unnecessary "+1"-like fudges. Sizes should be handled
exactly, as enlarging size parameters causes needless bloat and may just
make bugs less likely rather than fixing them: bn_expand() macro,
bn_expand_internal(), and BN_sqr().
- Deprecate bn_dup_expand() - it's new since 0.9.7, unused, and not that
useful.
- Remove unnecessary zeroing of unused bytes in bn_expand2().
- Rewrite BN_set_word() - it should be much simpler, the previous
complexities probably date from old mismatched type issues.
- Add missing bn_check_top() macros in bn_word.c
- Improve some degenerate case handling in BN_[add|sub]_word(), add
comments, and avoid a bignum expansion if an overflow isn't possible.
Remove certain redundant BN_zero() initialisations, because BN_CTX_get(),
BN_init(), [etc] already initialise to zero.
Correct error checking in bn_sqr.c, and be less wishy-wash about how/why
the result's 'top' value is set (note also, 'max' is always > 0 at this
point).
two functions that did expansion on in parameters (BN_mul() and
BN_sqr()). The problem was solved by making bn_dup_expand() which is
a mix of bn_expand2() and BN_dup().
BN_mod_mul_montgomery, which calls bn_sqr_recursive
without much preparation.
bn_sqr_recursive requires the length of its argument to be
a power of 2, which is not always the case here.
There's no reason for not using BN_sqr -- if a simpler
approach to squaring made sense, then why not change
BN_sqr? (Using BN_sqr should also speed up DH where g is chosen
such that it becomes small [e.g., 2] when converted
to Montgomery representation.)
Case closed :-)
but the BN code had some problems that would cause failures when
doing certificate verification and some other functions.
