Similarly, use string "EC PARAMETERS" instead of "ECDSA PARAMETERS"
in 'PEM' format.

Fix ec_asn1.c (take into account the desired conversion form).

CONF_modules_unload() now calls CONF_modules_finish()
automatically.

Default use of section openssl_conf moved to
CONF_modules_load()

Load config file in several openssl utilities.

Most utilities now load modules from the config file,
though in a few (such as version) this isn't done
because it couldn't be used for anything.

In the case of ca and req the config file used is
the same as the utility itself: that is the -config
command line option can be used to specify an
alternative file.

Stop spurious "unable to load config info" errors in req

(found by Massimiliano Pala <madwolf@hackmasters.net>).

Modify apps to use NCONF code instead of old CONF code.

Add new extension functions which work with NCONF.

Tidy up extension config routines and remove redundant code.

Fix NCONF_get_number().

Todo: more testing of apps to see they still work...

a description to put into error messages.

Also, have our own password callback that we can send both a password
and some prompt info to.  The default password callback in EVP assumes
that the passed parameter is a password, which isn't always the right
thing, and the ENGINE code (at least the nCipher one) makes other
assumptions...

Also, in spite of having the functions to load keys, some utilities
did the loading all by themselves...  That's changed too.

Change the EVP_somecipher() and EVP_somedigest()
functions to return constant EVP_MD and EVP_CIPHER
pointers.

Update docs.

This compiles and runs on Linux, and external applications have no
problems with it.  The definite test will be to build this on VMS.

sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
opensslconf.h.

I've checked fairly well that nothing breaks with this (apart from
external software that will adapt if they have used something like
NO_KRB5), but I can't guarantee it completely, so a review of this
change would be a good thing.

Remove the old broken bio read of serial numbers in the 'ca' index
file. This would choke if a revoked certificate was specified with
a negative serial number.

Fix typo in uid.c

At the same time, add VMS support for Rijndael.

Add support for X509_NAME_print_ex() in req.

record-oriented fashion.  That means that every write() will write a
separate record, which will be read separately by the programs trying
to read from it.  This can be very confusing.

The solution is to put a BIO filter in the way that will buffer text
until a linefeed is reached, and then write everything a line at a
time, so every record written will be an actual line, not chunks of
lines and not (usually doesn't happen, but I've seen it once) several
lines in one record.  Voila, BIO_f_linebuffer() is born.

Since we're so close to release time, I'm making this VMS-only for
now, just to make sure no code is needlessly broken by this.  After
the release, this BIO method will be enabled on all other platforms as
well.
