David Benjamin 17cf2cb1d2 Work around language and compiler bug in memcpy, etc.
Most C standard library functions are undefined if passed NULL, even
when the corresponding length is zero. This gives them (and, in turn,
all functions which call them) surprising behavior on empty arrays.
Some compilers will miscompile code due to this rule. See also

Add OPENSSL_memcpy, etc., wrappers which avoid this problem.

OID information is generated via a series of perl scripts. In order, the full
list of commands to run are:

        perl objects.pl objects.txt obj_mac.num ../../include/openssl/nid.h
        perl obj_dat.pl ../../include/openssl/nid.h obj_dat.h

objects.txt contains the list of all built-in OIDs. It is processed by
objects.pl to output obj_mac.num and nid.h. obj_mac.num is the list of NID
values for each OID. This is an input/output parameter so NID values are stable
across regenerations. nid.h is the header which defines macros for all the
built-in OIDs in C.

nid.h is read by obj_dat.pl to generate obj_dat.h. obj_dat.h contains the
ASN1_OBJECTs corresponding to built-in OIDs themselves along with lookup tables
for search by short name, OID, etc.
