ciphersuite string such as "DEFAULT:RSA" cannot enable
authentication-only ciphersuites.
Also, change ssl_create_cipher_list() so that it no longer
starts with an arbitrary ciphersuite ordering, but instead
uses the logic that we previously had in SSL_DEFEAULT_CIPHER_LIST.
SSL_DEFAULT_CIPHER_LIST simplifies into just "ALL:!aNULL:!eNULL".
This change resolves a number of problems and obviates multiple kludges.
A new feature is that you can now say "AES256" or "AES128" (not just
"AES", which enables both).
In some cases the ciphersuite list generated from a given string is
affected by this change. I hope this is just in those cases where the
previous behaviour did not make sense.
This tidies up verify parameters and adds support for integrated policy
checking.
Add support for policy related command line options. Currently only in smime
application.

This change has associated tags: LEVITTE_before_const and
LEVITTE_after_const. Those will be removed when this change has been
properly reviewed.
compression identity is already present among the registered
compression methods, and if so, reject the addition request.
Declare SSL_COMP_get_compression_method() so it can be used properly.
Change ssltest.c so it checks what compression methods are available
and enumerates them. As a side-effect, built-in compression methods
will be automagically loaded that way. Additionally, change the
identities for ZLIB and RLE to be conformant to
draft-ietf-tls-compression-05.txt.
Finally, make update.
Next on my list: have the built-in compression methods added
"automatically" instead of requiring that the author call
SSL_COMP_add_compression_method() or
SSL_COMP_get_compression_methods().
relates to SSL_CTX flags and the use of "external" session caching. The
existing flag, "SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_LOOKUP" remains but is
supplemented with a complimentary flag, "SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL_STORE".
The bitwise OR of the two flags is also defined as
"SSL_SESS_CACHE_NO_INTERNAL" and is the flag that should be used by most
applications wanting to implement session caching *entirely* by its own
provided callbacks. As the documented behaviour contradicted actual
behaviour up until recently, and since that point behaviour has itself been
inconsistent anyway, this change should not introduce any compatibility
problems. I've adjusted the relevant documentation to elaborate about how
this works.
Kudos to "Nadav Har'El" <nyh@math.technion.ac.il> for diagnosing these
anomalies and testing this patch for correctness.
