Switch to MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH versioning and version 3.0.0-dev

We're strictly use version numbers of the form MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.
Letter releases are things of days past.

The most central change is that we now express the version number with
three macros, one for each part of the version number:

OPENSSL_VERSION_MAJOR
OPENSSL_VERSION_MINOR
OPENSSL_VERSION_PATCH

We also provide two additional macros to express pre-release and build
metadata information (also specified in semantic versioning):

OPENSSL_VERSION_PRE_RELEASE
OPENSSL_VERSION_BUILD_METADATA

To get the library's idea of all those values, we introduce the
following functions:

unsigned int OPENSSL_version_major(void);
unsigned int OPENSSL_version_minor(void);
unsigned int OPENSSL_version_patch(void);
const char *OPENSSL_version_pre_release(void);
const char *OPENSSL_version_build_metadata(void);

Additionally, for shared library versioning (which is out of scope in
semantic versioning, but that we still need):

OPENSSL_SHLIB_VERSION

We also provide a macro that contains the release date. This is not
part of the version number, but is extra information that we want to
be able to display:

OPENSSL_RELEASE_DATE

Finally, also provide the following convenience functions:

const char *OPENSSL_version_text(void);
const char *OPENSSL_version_text_full(void);

The following macros and functions are deprecated, and while currently
existing for backward compatibility, they are expected to disappear:

OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER
OPENSSL_VERSION_TEXT
OPENSSL_VERSION
OpenSSL_version_num()
OpenSSL_version()

Also, this function is introduced to replace OpenSSL_version() for all
indexes except for OPENSSL_VERSION:

OPENSSL_info()

For configuration, the option 'newversion-only' is added to disable all
the macros and functions that are mentioned as deprecated above.

Allow parallel install

When trying 'make -j{n} install', you may occasionally run into
trouble because to sub-targets (install_dev and install_runtime) try
to install the same shared libraries. That makes parallel install
difficult.

This is solved by dividing install_runtime into two parts, one for
libraries and one for programs, and have install_dev depend on
install_runtime_libs instead of installing the shared runtime
libraries itself.

build file templates: have targets for all shared library names

We only had targets for the "simple" shared library names (libfoo.so
and not libfoo.so.x.y on Unix, import library libfoo.lib but not
libfoo.dll on Windows). This has created some confusion why it wasn't
possible to rebuild the less "simple" name directly (just as an
example, someone who mistook the import library on Windows for a
static library, removed the DLL and then found it was difficult to
rebuild directly), so we change the target to include all possible
names.

Refactor linker script generation

The generation of linker scripts was badly balanced, as all sorts of
platform dependent stuff went into the top build.info, when that part
should really be made as simply and generic as possible.

Therefore, we move a lot of the "magic" to the build files templates,
since they are the place for platform dependent things. What remains
is to parametrize just enough in the build.info file to generate the
linker scripts correctly for each associated library.

"linker script" is a term usually reserved for certain Unix linkers.
However, we only use them to say what symbols should be exported, so
we use the term loosely for all platforms. The internal extension is
'.ld', and is changed by the build file templates as appropriate for
each target platform.

Note that this adds extra meaning to the value of the shared_target
attribute.

The possibility to do this was killed when we started producing object

With that, 'libobj2shlib' is renamed to 'obj2shlib' to reflect this
design change. The old name is still used if the new one isn't
available, for the sake of backward compatibility.

So far we have been naively linking with version-less libcrypto|ssl.so,
which poses long-term maintenance problems. One could choose to link
straight with libcrypto.so.X.Y [or libcrypto.X.Y.so], but it would be
inconsistent with the way AIX [or Unix] does things.
