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.

With "-multi" the OCSP responder forks multiple child processes,
and respawns them as needed. This can be used as a long-running
service, not just a demo program. Therefore the index file is
automatically re-read when changed. The responder also now optionally
times out client requests.
