Allow ECDHE and DHE as forward-compatible aliases for EECDH and EDH

see RT #3203

Future versions of OpenSSL use the canonical terms "ECDHE" and "DHE"
as configuration strings and compilation constants.  This patch
introduces aliases so that the stable 1.0.2 branch can be
forward-compatible with code and configuration scripts that use the
normalized terms, while avoiding changing any library output for
stable users.

description of the cipher property is B<unknown>. This case should not
occur.
The standard terminology for ephemeral Diffie-Hellman schemes is DHE
(finite field) or ECDHE (elliptic curve). This version of OpenSSL
idiosyncratically reports these schemes as EDH and EECDH, even though
it also accepts the standard terminology.
It is recommended to use the standard terminology (DHE and ECDHE)
during configuration (e.g. via SSL_CTX_set_cipher_list) for clarity of
configuration. OpenSSL versions after 1.0.2 will report the standard
terms via SSL_CIPHER_get_name and SSL_CIPHER_description.
