In EVP_EncryptInit remove duplicate mention of EVP_idea_cbc()
In EVP_PKEY_CTX_ctrl.pod remove EVP_PKEY_get_default_digest_nid

The current documentation contains a bunch of spelling and grammar mistakes. I also
found it hard to understand some paragraphs, so here is my attempt to improve its
readability.

Out is the buffer which needs to contain at least inl + cipher_block_size - 1 bytes. Outl

If data is NULL, return the size needed to hold the
derived key. No other API to do this, so document

pod2man now complains when item tags are not sequential.
Also complains about missing =back and other tags.
Silence the warnings; most were already done.

The original RT request included a patch. By the time
we got around to doing it, however, the callback scheme
had changed. So I wrote a new function RSA_check_key_ex()
that uses the BN_GENCB callback. But thanks very much
to Vinet Sharma <vineet.sharma@gmail.com> for the
initial implementation.

RT1665: aes documentation.
Paul Green wrote a nice aes.pod file.
But we now encourage the EVP interface.
So I took his RT item and used it as impetus to add
the AES modes to EVP_EncryptInit.pod
I also noticed that rc4.pod has spurious references to some other
cipher pages, so I removed them.
RT2300: Clean up MD history (merged into RT1665)
Put HISTORY section only in EVP_DigestInit.pod. Also add words
to discourage use of older cipher-specific API, and remove SEE ALSO
links that point to them.
Make sure digest pages have a NOTE that says use EVP_DigestInit.
Review feedback:
More cleanup in EVP_EncryptInit.pod
Fixed SEE ALSO links in ripemd160.pod, sha.pod, mdc2.pod, blowfish.pod,
rc4.d, and des.pod. Re-order sections in des.pod for consistency

In two OpenSSL manual pages, in the NAME section, the last word of the
name list is followed by a stray trailing comma. While this may seem
minor, it is worth fixing because it may confuse some makewhatis(8)
implementations.
While here, also add the missing word "size" to the one line
description in SSL_CTX_set_max_cert_list(3).
