Huge documentation update for libcrypto and libssl, mostly from Matt Caswell,

Jeff Trawick, Jean-Paul Calderone, Michal Bozon, Jeffrey Walton and Rich Salz,
via OpenSSL trunk (with some parts not applying to us, such as SSLv2 support,
at least partially removed).

+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+EC_POINT_add adds the two points B<a> and B<b> and places the result in B<r>. Similarly EC_POINT_dbl doubles the point B<a> and places the
+result in B<r>. In both cases it is valid for B<r> to be one of B<a> or B<b>.
+
+EC_POINT_invert calculates the inverse of the supplied point B<a>. The result is placed back in B<a>.
+
+The function EC_POINT_is_at_infinity tests whether the supplied point is at infinity or not.
+
+EC_POINT_is_on_curve tests whether the supplied point is on the curve or not.
+
+EC_POINT_cmp compares the two supplied points and tests whether or not they are equal.
+
+The functions EC_POINT_make_affine and EC_POINTs_make_affine force the internal representation of the EC_POINT(s) into the affine
+co-ordinate system. In the case of EC_POINTs_make_affine the value B<num> provides the number of points in the array B<points> to be
+forced.
+
+EC_POINT_mul calculates the value generator * B<n> + B<q> * B<m> and stores the result in B<r>. The value B<n> may be NULL in which case the result is just B<q> * B<m>.
+
+EC_POINTs_mul calculates the value generator * B<n> + B<q[0]> * B<m[0]> + ... + B<q[num-1]> * B<m[num-1]>. As for EC_POINT_mul the value
+B<n> may be NULL.
+
+The function EC_GROUP_precompute_mult stores multiples of the generator for faster point multiplication, whilst
+EC_GROUP_have_precompute_mult tests whether precomputation has already been done. See L<EC_GROUP_copy(3)|EC_GROUP_copy(3)> for information
+about the generator.
+
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+The following functions return 1 on success or 0 on error: EC_POINT_add, EC_POINT_dbl, EC_POINT_invert, EC_POINT_make_affine,
+EC_POINTs_make_affine, EC_POINTs_make_affine, EC_POINT_mul, EC_POINTs_mul and EC_GROUP_precompute_mult.
+
+EC_POINT_is_at_infinity returns 1 if the point is at infinity, or 0 otherwise.
+
+EC_POINT_is_on_curve returns 1 if the point is on the curve, 0 if not, or -1 on error.
+
+EC_POINT_cmp returns 1 if the points are not equal, 0 if they are, or -1 on error.
+
+EC_GROUP_have_precompute_mult return 1 if a precomputation has been done, or 0 if not.
