David Benjamin 6f7374b0ed Restore EC_GROUP_new_by_curve_name and EC_GROUP_set_generator. 
Having a different API for this case than upstream is more trouble than is
worth it. This is sad since the new API avoids incomplete EC_GROUPs at least,
but I don't believe supporting this pair of functions will be significantly
more complex than supporting EC_GROUP_new_arbitrary even when we have static
EC_GROUPs.

For now, keep both sets of APIs around, but we'll be able to remove the scar
tissue once Conscrypt's complex dependencies are resolved.

Make the restored EC_GROUP_set_generator somewhat simpler than before by
removing the ability to call it multiple times and with some parameters set to
NULL. Keep the test.

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.
