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.

=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.
