David Benjamin 4709203de6 Make forward-declaring bssl::UniquePtr<T> actually work.
The compiler complains about:
  error: explicit specialization of
  'bssl::internal::Deleter<evp_pkey_st>' after instantiation

This is because, although the deleter's operator() is not instantiated
without emitting std::unique_ptr's destructor, the deleter itself *is*.
Deleters are allowed to have non-zero size, so a std::unique_ptr
actually embeds a copy of the deleter, so it needs the size of the
deleter.

As with all problems in computer science, we fix this with a layer of
indirection. Instead of specializing the deleter, we specialize
bssl::internal::DeleterImpl which, when specialized, has a static method
Free. That is only instantiated inside
bssl::internal::Deleter::operator(), giving us the desired properties.

(Did I mention forward decls are terrible? I wish people wouldn't want
them so much.)

Also appease clang-format.

BoringSSL

BoringSSL is a fork of OpenSSL that is designed to meet Google's needs.

Although BoringSSL is an open source project, it is not intended for general use, as OpenSSL is. We don't recommend that third parties depend upon it. Doing so is likely to be frustrating because there are no guarantees of API or ABI stability.

Programs ship their own copies of BoringSSL when they use it and we update everything as needed when deciding to make API changes. This allows us to mostly avoid compromises in the name of compatibility. It works for us, but it may not work for you.

BoringSSL arose because Google used OpenSSL for many years in various ways and, over time, built up a large number of patches that were maintained while tracking upstream OpenSSL. As Google's product portfolio became more complex, more copies of OpenSSL sprung up and the effort involved in maintaining all these patches in multiple places was growing steadily.

Currently BoringSSL is the SSL library in Chrome/Chromium, Android (but it's not part of the NDK) and a number of other apps/programs.
