Dr. Matthias St. Pierre df75c2bfcd man: harmonize the various formulations in the HISTORY sections
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.

=head1 NAME
SSL_CTX_get0_param, SSL_get0_param, SSL_CTX_set1_param, SSL_set1_param -
get and set verification parameters
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
X509_VERIFY_PARAM *SSL_CTX_get0_param(SSL_CTX *ctx)
X509_VERIFY_PARAM *SSL_get0_param(SSL *ssl)
int SSL_CTX_set1_param(SSL_CTX *ctx, X509_VERIFY_PARAM *vpm)
int SSL_set1_param(SSL *ssl, X509_VERIFY_PARAM *vpm)
=head1 DESCRIPTION
SSL_CTX_get0_param() and SSL_get0_param() retrieve an internal pointer to
the verification parameters for B<ctx> or B<ssl> respectively. The returned
pointer must not be freed by the calling application.
SSL_CTX_set1_param() and SSL_set1_param() set the verification parameters
to B<vpm> for B<ctx> or B<ssl>.
=head1 NOTES
Typically parameters are retrieved from an B<SSL_CTX> or B<SSL> structure
using SSL_CTX_get0_param() or SSL_get0_param() and an application modifies
them to suit its needs: for example to add a hostname check.
=head1 EXAMPLE
Check hostname matches "www.foo.com" in peer certificate:
X509_VERIFY_PARAM *vpm = SSL_get0_param(ssl);
X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set1_host(vpm, "www.foo.com", 0);
=head1 RETURN VALUES
SSL_CTX_get0_param() and SSL_get0_param() return a pointer to an
B<X509_VERIFY_PARAM> structure.
SSL_CTX_set1_param() and SSL_set1_param() return 1 for success and 0
for failure.
=head1 SEE ALSO
L<X509_VERIFY_PARAM_set_flags(3)>
=head1 HISTORY
These functions were added in OpenSSL 1.0.2.
