Use the new pipeline cipher capability to encrypt multiple records being
written out all in one go. Two new SSL/SSL_CTX parameters can be used to
control how this works: max_pipelines and split_send_fragment.
max_pipelines defines the maximum number of pipelines that can ever be used
in one go for a single connection. It must always be less than or equal to
SSL_MAX_PIPELINES (currently defined to be 32). By default only one
pipeline will be used (i.e. normal non-parallel operation).
split_send_fragment defines how data is split up into pipelines. The number
of pipelines used will be determined by the amount of data provided to the
SSL_write call divided by split_send_fragment. For example if
split_send_fragment is set to 2000 and max_pipelines is 4 then:
SSL_write called with 0-2000 bytes == 1 pipeline used
SSL_write called with 2001-4000 bytes == 2 pipelines used
SSL_write called with 4001-6000 bytes == 3 pipelines used
SSL_write_called with 6001+ bytes == 4 pipelines used
split_send_fragment must always be less than or equal to max_send_fragment.
By default it is set to be equal to max_send_fragment. This will mean that
the same number of records will always be created as would have been
created in the non-parallel case, although the data will be apportioned
differently. In the parallel case data will be spread equally between the
pipelines.

This was done by the following
find . -name '*.[ch]' | /tmp/pl
where /tmp/pl is the following three-line script:
print unless $. == 1 && m@/\* .*\.[ch] \*/@;
close ARGV if eof; # Close file to reset $.
And then some hand-editing of other files.

Fix the setup of DTLS1.2 buffers to take account of the Header

The function RECORD_LAYER_clear() is supposed to clear the contents of the
RECORD_LAYER structure, but retain certain data such as buffers that are
allocated. Unfortunately one buffer (for compression) got missed and was
inadvertently being wiped, thus causing a memory leak.
In part this is due to the fact that RECORD_LAYER_clear() was reaching
inside SSL3_BUFFERs and SSL3_RECORDs, which it really shouldn't. So, I've
rewritten it to only clear the data it knows about, and to defer clearing
of SSL3_RECORD and SSL3_BUFFER structures to SSL_RECORD_clear() and the
new function SSL3_BUFFER_clear().
