Remove SSLeay history, etc., from docs
If something was "present in all versions" of SSLeay, or if it was added to a version of SSLeay (and therefore predates OpenSSL), remove mention of it. Documentation history now starts with OpenSSL. Remove mention of all history before OpenSSL 0.9.8, inclusive. Remove all AUTHOR sections. Reviewed-by: Tim Hudson <tjh@openssl.org>

=head1 NOTES
|
||||
|
||||
As of version 0.9.7, DSA_METHOD implementations are grouped together with other
|
||||
algorithmic APIs (eg. RSA_METHOD, EVP_CIPHER, etc) in B<ENGINE> modules. If a
|
||||
default ENGINE is specified for DSA functionality using an ENGINE API function,
|
||||
that will override any DSA defaults set using the DSA API (ie.
|
||||
DSA_set_default_method()). For this reason, the ENGINE API is the recommended way
|
||||
to control default implementations for use in DSA and other cryptographic
|
||||
algorithms.

=head1 HISTORY
|
||||
|
||||
DSA_set_default_method(), DSA_get_default_method(), DSA_set_method(),
|
||||
DSA_new_method() and DSA_OpenSSL() were added in OpenSSL 0.9.4.
|
||||
|
||||
DSA_set_default_openssl_method() and DSA_get_default_openssl_method() replaced
|
||||
DSA_set_default_method() and DSA_get_default_method() respectively, and
|
||||
DSA_set_method() and DSA_new_method() were altered to use B<ENGINE>s rather than
|
||||
B<DSA_METHOD>s during development of the engine version of OpenSSL 0.9.6. For
|
||||
0.9.7, the handling of defaults in the ENGINE API was restructured so that this
|
||||
change was reversed, and behaviour of the other functions resembled more closely
|
||||
the previous behaviour. The behaviour of defaults in the ENGINE API now
|
||||
transparently overrides the behaviour of defaults in the DSA API without
|
||||
requiring changing these function prototypes.
