Beat Bolli e9b7724687 doc/man3: reformat the function prototypes in the synopses
I tried hard to keep the lines at 80 characters or less, but in a few
cases I had to punt and just indented the subsequent lines by 4 spaces.

A few well-placed typedefs for callback functions would really help, but
these would be part of the API, so that's probably for later.

I also took the liberty of inserting empty lines in overlong blocks to
provide some visual space.

=head1 NAME
CMS_add1_recipient_cert, CMS_add0_recipient_key - add recipients to a CMS enveloped data structure
=head1 SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/cms.h>
CMS_RecipientInfo *CMS_add1_recipient_cert(CMS_ContentInfo *cms,
X509 *recip, unsigned int flags);
CMS_RecipientInfo *CMS_add0_recipient_key(CMS_ContentInfo *cms, int nid,
unsigned char *key, size_t keylen,
unsigned char *id, size_t idlen,
ASN1_GENERALIZEDTIME *date,
ASN1_OBJECT *otherTypeId,
ASN1_TYPE *otherType);
=head1 DESCRIPTION
CMS_add1_recipient_cert() adds recipient B<recip> to CMS_ContentInfo enveloped
data structure B<cms> as a KeyTransRecipientInfo structure.
CMS_add0_recipient_key() adds symmetric key B<key> of length B<keylen> using
wrapping algorithm B<nid>, identifier B<id> of length B<idlen> and optional
values B<date>, B<otherTypeId> and B<otherType> to CMS_ContentInfo enveloped
data structure B<cms> as a KEKRecipientInfo structure.
The CMS_ContentInfo structure should be obtained from an initial call to
CMS_encrypt() with the flag B<CMS_PARTIAL> set.
=head1 NOTES
The main purpose of this function is to provide finer control over a CMS
enveloped data structure where the simpler CMS_encrypt() function defaults are
not appropriate. For example if one or more KEKRecipientInfo structures
need to be added. New attributes can also be added using the returned
CMS_RecipientInfo structure and the CMS attribute utility functions.
OpenSSL will by default identify recipient certificates using issuer name
and serial number. If B<CMS_USE_KEYID> is set it will use the subject key
identifier value instead. An error occurs if all recipient certificates do not
have a subject key identifier extension.
Currently only AES based key wrapping algorithms are supported for B<nid>,
specifically: NID_id_aes128_wrap, NID_id_aes192_wrap and NID_id_aes256_wrap.
If B<nid> is set to B<NID_undef> then an AES wrap algorithm will be used
consistent with B<keylen>.
=head1 RETURN VALUES
CMS_add1_recipient_cert() and CMS_add0_recipient_key() return an internal
pointer to the CMS_RecipientInfo structure just added or NULL if an error
occurs.
