f3b555a601 Fix off-by-one in BN_rand
If BN_rand is called with |bits| set to 1 and |top| set to 1 then a 1 byte
buffer overflow can occur. There are no such instances within the OpenSSL at
the moment.

Thanks to Mateusz Kocielski (LogicalTrust), Marek Kroemeke, Filip Palian for
discovering and reporting this issue.

c0de854c9d Reject negative shifts for BN_rshift and BN_lshift
The functions BN_rshift and BN_lshift shift their arguments to the right or
left by a specified number of bits. Unpredicatable results (including
crashes) can occur if a negative number is supplied for the shift value.

Thanks to Mateusz Kocielski (LogicalTrust), Marek Kroemeke and Filip Palian
for discovering and reporting this issue.

29f4b05954 The use of the PURIFY macro in ssleay_rand_bytes() is sufficient to
resolve the Valgrind issue with random numbers. Undo the changes to
RAND_bytes() and RAND_pseudo_bytes() that are redundant in this
respect.
Update documentation and FAQ accordingly, as the PURIFY macro is
available at least since 0.9.7.
