These functions are useful for implementing non-ASN.1-based protocols
like JSON Web Signature (JWS) and they are even already used within
Chromium.

Add some missing headers and ensure each header has a short description. doc.go
gets confused at declarations that break before the first (, so avoid doing
that. Also skip a/an/deprecated: in markupFirstWord and process pipe words in
the table of contents.

This change marks public symbols as dynamically exported. This means
that it becomes viable to build a shared library of libcrypto and libssl
with -fvisibility=hidden.

On Windows, one not only needs to mark functions for export in a
component, but also for import when using them from a different
component. Because of this we have to build with
|BORINGSSL_IMPLEMENTATION| defined when building the code. Other
components, when including our headers, won't have that defined and then
the |OPENSSL_EXPORT| tag becomes an import tag instead. See the #defines
in base.h

In the asm code, symbols are now hidden by default and those that need
to be exported are wrapped by a C function.

In order to support Chromium, a couple of libssl functions were moved to
ssl.h from ssl_locl.h: ssl_get_new_session and ssl_update_cache.

Where possible, functions should return one for success and zero for
error. The use of additional negative values to indicate an error is,
itself, error prone.

This change fixes many EVP functions to remove the possibility of
negative return values. Existing code that is testing for <= 0 will
continue to function, although there is the possibility that some code
was differentiating between negative values (error) and zero (invalid
signature) for the verify functions and will now show the wrong error
message.

Previously, public headers lived next to the respective code and there
were symlinks from include/openssl to them.

This doesn't work on Windows.

This change moves the headers to live in include/openssl. In cases where
some symlinks pointed to the same header, I've added a file that just
includes the intended target. These cases are all for backwards-compat.
