+) Change all functions with names starting with des_ to be starting
with DES_ instead. This because there are increasing clashes with
libdes and other des libraries that are currently used by other
projects. The old libdes interface is provided, as well as crypt(),
if openssl/des_old.h is included. Note that crypt() is no longer
declared in openssl/des.h.
In order to maintain compatibility with current applications using
libcrypto, the old libdes interface is still provided, as long as
OPENSSL_NO_OLD_DES_SUPPORT is not defined, by automatically including
openssl/des_old.h.
with DES_ instead. Add wrappers that are compatible with libdes,
but are named _old_des_*. Finally, add macros that map the des_*
symbols to the corresponding _old_des_*.
All this is done because there are increasing clashes with libdes
and other des libraries that are currently used by other projects.
For now, the old libdes interface is provided, as well as crypt(),
unless OPENSSL_NO_OLD_DES_SUPPORT is defined, or if openssl/des_old.h
is included. Note that crypt() is no longer declared in openssl/des.h.
NOTE: This is a major break of an old API into a new one. Software
authors are encouraged to switch to the DES_ style functions. Some
