The Chromium certificate verifier ends up encoding a SET OF when canonicalizing X.509 names. Requiring the caller canonicalize a SET OF is complicated enough that we should probably sort it for folks. (We really need to get this name canonicalization insanity out of X.509...) This would remove the extra level of indirection in Chromium net/cert/internal/verify_name_match.cc CBB usage. Note this is not quite the same order as SET, but SET is kind of useless. Since it's encoding heterogeneous values, it is reasonable to require the caller just encode them in the correct order. In fact, a DER SET is just SEQUENCE with a post-processing step on the definition to fix the ordering of the fields. (Unless the SET contains an untagged CHOICE, in which case the ordering is weird, but SETs are not really used in the real world, much less SETs with untagged CHOICEs.)

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.
