Rich Salz 4692340e31 Unify d2i/i2d documentation.
Make d2i_X509 a generic d2i/i2d manpage.
Pull common stuff out of other d2i/i2d docs.
Update find-doc-nits to know about "generic" manpages.
Cleanup some overlap.

=head1 NAME
d2i_SSL_SESSION, i2d_SSL_SESSION - convert SSL_SESSION object from/to ASN1 representation
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/ssl.h>
SSL_SESSION *d2i_SSL_SESSION(SSL_SESSION **a, const unsigned char **pp, long length);
int i2d_SSL_SESSION(SSL_SESSION *in, unsigned char **pp);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
These functions decode and encode an SSL_SESSION object.
For encoding details see L<d2i_X509(3)>.
SSL_SESSION objects keep internal link information about the session cache
list, when being inserted into one SSL_CTX object's session cache.
One SSL_SESSION object, regardless of its reference count, must therefore
only be used with one SSL_CTX object (and the SSL objects created
from this SSL_CTX object).
=head1 RETURN VALUES
d2i_SSL_SESSION() returns a pointer to the newly allocated SSL_SESSION
object. In case of failure the NULL-pointer is returned and the error message
can be retrieved from the error stack.
i2d_SSL_SESSION() returns the size of the ASN1 representation in bytes.
When the session is not valid, B<0> is returned and no operation is performed.
